I'm sure the PH team will sort this out - this tendency to start producing sound from ads is a very bad one and agencies distributing ads that do this will lose business, IMO.

In the mean time: MUTE!

PH, this seems to be happening on a regular basis. I know you say that the company that provide the ads aren't *supposed* to allow ads with sound, but as they seem to consistently fail to adhere to your marketing brief I would suggest you change companies.

There are frequent threads with people complaining about adverts that make noise and it's clearly pissing people off.

Agreed, I realise ads may be a necessary evil, but please get rid of any sound from them.

Death to the Milky Bar ad team. A pox on their houses and I hope their parts drop off.

Hehe. I just came over here to moan about this, but it seems Tonker has summed it up perfectly already.

I am now obliged to do a 'milkybar run' at work to satisfy the banter of my team, who at 9.14 this morning discovered through my laptop that I was not their boss, but was in fact the Milkybar kid. Doh!

I appreciate the need for business advertising, and i'm not that concerned (a little bit of banter helps the office morale)...but it is now starting to grate, been on every thread i've clicked on so far....

Please help, i'm a simple soul and if someone tells me something incessantly, I fear I may end up believing them.... smile

It's no good, I'm trying to go through the forums in the office when to be honest I'm supposed to be working and the fking milky bar advert is too big a give away. Advertising yes, but no sound please!

If I get sacked because of that stupid advert, I assume I'm guaranteed a job at PH? ;-)

Our IT dept governs what applications we can and cannot have installed on our work machines, and as such we cannot install Firefox. It isn't 'approved' don't you know. Therefore I can't use adblock.

Its not as if we don't know what we're doing or anything, we're only computer engineers FFS!!

Thats what worries them. That you might know what you are doing! Knowledge is dangerous.

Anyway the Ad is still there people! Pete! Pete! Get in here and tell us whats being done.

We want floggings and no faked ones. Custard will be required!
