Why not?

Gets rid of all the crap (including the advert you mention above).

I use Chrome. I'm well aware of how to block ads. I happen to think that if PH is going to ask its users nicely not to block ads, which it regularly does, then it should respect the fact that a vast amount of its traffic is sourced from people's places of work and as such noisy ads are rather tedious.

IE. Good grief, what do you think I am, some kind of pilchard?

Thanks, we do ask that you don't as we do get money from them which helps pay for our costs (which are not small)

I'll flag this up with the ads team in the morning.
