You know...the one that keeps playing over and over on the side. If you had your sound on, you'd know how annoying this thing is.

I downloaded ie7pro earlier today from here http://www.ie7pro.com/index.php because of that ad. After downloading, right click on the blue "e" at the bottom of the page and click on "Enable Flash Blocking". Works like a charm. No more annoying ads or videos

I sent the following email to custserv@gap.com --
To Whom It May Concern:
I am writing in regards to the commercial that The Gap is running on
the Yahoo!Answers website.
I must say that to have this commercial's soundtrack suddenly pop up
while I am attempting to use Y!A is both disconcerting and annoying.
It has created, at least for me, a negative feeling toward The Gap in
general, and I've heard from other people that it makes them feel the
same way.

I listen to gospel music and sometimes my church online, all while I'm answering questions here. The ad is greatly interfering with my enjoyment here. How can we all let Yahoo know?

I still have about 173 more to go before I punch the screen out.

Yahoo violated me for complaining about that lousy ad. I guess we can't interfere with their profit.
