Does anyone else receive these when trying to access a thread? It's always a Circuit City flash ad, but I'm redirected to it occasionally. Running Adaware and S&D have done nothing to prevent it from coming back. I'm assuming it's a PCMech sponsored ad.

It has a message in the top right corner that 'Your Page is Loading' and a link to 'Skip This Ad,' but I can't go on to the thread until the ad fully loads. It takes a while for my pathetic dial-up to download the ad, so it would sure be nice if there was some way to avoid it...
