Get Rid of the Adobe Ads

I can't even use NS anymore without rolling over these silly Adobe ads that open up and fill my screen and then are a nuisance to close. I understand you guys don't fully control the ads on the site but at least suggest to whoever is to take this rollover option off. If i want your product, i'll click the ad myself.

I've never gotten this Adobe ad and I'm pretty happy I haven't.

I haven't seen any ad like that...

PS, when you use adblockers, the site loses money.
essentially...

If they wouldn't piss us off with such annoying ads we wouldn't have to use an adblocker.

But I have ad block plus and I still get the rollover ads. I tried complaining about them months ago, but nothing ever happened. I guess it's just NS changing. We're going to have to deal with it.

We've actually changed the ad location for the new layout of the site. When that launches, no longer will you have your navigation blocked by a rollover ad. You'll be able to instantly click away if wished.
