Are you flemke in disguise? ( see: http://www.pistonheads.com/gassing/topic.asp?h=0&a... ) 
I've had a word with the relevant people, it should be disappearing soon if it hasn't already.

not flemke.And it's still there flashing away.
This ad comes up very frequently, seen it loads of times today. It's giving me the pip now. Can we nuke it from orbit? Pretty please? 
And before anyone says anything - I've done plenty of work today thanks.

Yup, it's back.
This appears to be for an outfit that is a customer harvester, presumably for a fee, for companies that provide IVA administration. A young work colleague has been down this rather stressful route.
IVAs are a vehicle the financial industry provide to help people out of overwhelming debt and will pay management fees for administration but reportedly are getting increasingly annoyed about them being marketed actively by folk wanting to make money out of the administration.
It's possible to find administrators yourself that charge the client nothing and recoup all their costs from the financial industry. However there are some that charge the debtor fees, adding to their burden. If an administrator is paying for introductions as well it must be tempting to raise the costs for the end customer, who is already in financial dire straights.
I wonder how these ads reflect upon the site that hosts them?

We should have a mass-clickthrough to cost them money.
It would, of course, be completely irresponsible to suggest that everyone should click through and complete an assessment in the name of G.Brown of SW1A 2AA wouldn't it ? But funny.
