The only adds that have ever seemed remotely like an irritant are the pop unders that pop over with "Are you sure you want to exit this page?"
I completely agree. That ad was removed immediately. I barred that advertiser and also compainted about it to Valueclick - the agency. Any ad that interfers with site enjoyment or irritates users (beyond just being an 'ad' - which will always irritate some) will be removed - always has been.
Simviation is about giving our users a good experience.
