Is it just me?

The Knight Rider ad seems to be overkill. It takes forever on my computer to load, and my firefox adblocker won't help. Once it's through loading everything works fine. Any ideas you guys can help me get this add to quit playing would be appreciated.

Run Firefox with Adblock Plus and there are no ads.

I have the ad-on NoScript running, too. Maybe that is what is blocking it.

I'll check into that when I get home. The machines here at work are fine with the flash ad, it's my home comp that is having issues.
