Currently there is a banner add on here which claims that "You are over the 1'000'000 visitor: CONGRATULATIONS you WON!!!". This, I can ignore. However, it beeps every 5 seconds, which is decidedly hard to ignore.
Has anyone else seen this?
Sorry to sound like a grumpy old man. I've already e-mailed the site admins, but to no reply. So I have to vent my complaints somehow...

Turning the speakers off doesn't work either. Well, it does, but it's not a very satisfying solution as I'm listening to music. However, just pressing refresh works wonders!

You think that is bad- there is one smile advert that makes me want to hunt down the advertiser and kill him, his family and his families family!!!
Wait until you accidentally scroll over that one, then you will know true annoyance..... or subscribe, I am going to sometime after I have finished my current crop of games.
