try a program called AdBlocker Plus - blocks popups and animated ads. Other than that, just keep your speakers muted.

Pretty much everybody I know likes to listen to music, radio, live stream news, something that soothes or entertains whilst surfing. Muting is not an option.

All of the ads are annoying but this is a free site and it helps the folks who created this board.

I go to the lower right corner of my computer and click on the volume icon and click on the blue mute button there. silences everything until you unclick it.
