I am all up for advertising on NS because I know that is how this website runs and makes money, but having annoying sound clips come on when I sign on all the time?  Ugh.  Is there a way to make that clip optional?  I wanted to punch the screen after hearing it a couple of times.

It was basically a series of Axe deoderant commercial which always played before the videos you watched on NS. There were quite a few different ones but it got to a point were it was the same add every time you watch a vid, no matter how long the vid was, for about two months.. kinda sucked

yes, I will agree with that.  Double pits to chesty... horrible.  I've always hated axe because it smells bad, and kids way over use it, but their advertising put my disdain over the top.
