I ran every AV and spyware program that I had to try and find out what this crap is about. Thanks for letting us know that Fox is behind it.

Flashblock and AdSubtract addons to Firefox browser make most adds go away.

Switch to FF3, install the add-on adblock Plus 1.2 and you’ll never see an ad again. It’s fantastic and it’s completely free.

I wasn’t able to skip or close the ad. It is extremely annoying and it made the web site unusable for a bit. Then I looked away for a few seconds and it was gone. Did it actually advertise something?
