Weird. I couldn't get normal Adblock to work, there was something wrong with filterset.G. But Adblock Plus works fine and is blocking the AOL ad as we speak (I write).

Not to mention it also questioned your masculinity, That might want to make you want to punch your monitor, so I suggest doing it.
Oh and By the Way, Firefox doesn't block it either.

It wouldn't be that bad were it not animated and if it didn't move the rest of the site down...

I lol'd at that.
Adblock Plus worked for me. I haven't had ads for a while on Halomods.
Does IE have some sort of "Anti-ad" extension thingymabob? You should try to look one up.

I added a *.swf ban (had to do it manually, couldn't just right click the flash file) and poof, it's gone! Now of course I can't see any other swf files anywhere. I'll go find the name of the .swf file and change it though

Alrighty, if you're using firefox and can't get it removed with AdBlock, just go to the adblock prefs, add a new filter and use "
http://www.hypemakers.net/aolopen/files ... 97/597.swf" as the filter.

Even with fancy thingamajigs it still bothers me that someone would even concider putting something that hideous here. On the main page I can understand a little more than the forums
