Is interrupting my prevarication from work by self-starting loudly after each page change. It's a video thing sponsored by Asda.

I have a cat on lap with sharp claws and the self-starting Video Thing is also startling lap cat, leaving me with 16 injuries per incident.

Please make it stop.

(I'd turn down the volume but that's interrupting my other prevarication from work.)

Thanks in advance, WWK and her lap cat.

Thanks for letting us know. We'll get it checked out straight away.

If there's any chance someone can post a screenshot of the ad, that'd be very helpful.

It's this one. I'm on my phone and it's starting to play before I can even see it. Most annoying

Really fucking annoying. Glad to see it's not just me that it is annoying.

The other thing about it - as I just got it going back to active threads & it was in view - is that it flashes saying it's loading and starts fannying about AND THERE IS NO VISIBLE WAY OF STOPPING IT UNTIL IT STARTS MAKING A RACKET!!!

Indeed - what fresh hell is this?

Ads that make din? How on earth do you expect us to Mn surreptitiously from the workplace, the WI meeting and the parish council committee?

Also it makes me jump, too.

Totally intrusive.
