Auto playing videos I can't switch off!

[HeIsAVeryBadBoy]

Hey MN,

My husband has his first day off of his Christmas break today so he's sleeping in beside me.

However, I've been sat on MN this morning and a 'do you want to know a secret' Cadburys video keeps popping up and noisily auto-playing. I'm on a new laptop so panicked and couldn't find the volume button in time to stop it. Tried to click it off as an alternative but it refused to shut up or go away.

After it has ended, I turned my volume off but since then it has popped up another three times.

And just on the off chance that Cadbury want to know how effective that campaign was. That whole aggressive strategy fully put me off buying anything from you at all. Really hate forced advertising.

Hi OP

Sorry about this and thanks for flagging it to us - can we ask what browser you were using when this happened and if possible, please could you upload a screenshot of the advert?

Here it is Lily. It's on chrome if that helps :)

Hi OP

If you click the cross does it go away for the time that you're on the thread?

Hey Lily, no. Nothing happens when I click the cross or the volume button. It just stays there, insistently playing.
