Intel 'crack' adverts
Sorry peeps, but these are really annoying. Can you disable the noise that it makes? Rather than making me click it makes me go elsewhere!

Re: Intel 'crack' adverts
Oh yes... THOSE adverts. Man they are a pain in the ass. Irritating advertising just doesn't make any sense to me... it's just aggravating, and most definitely doesn't make me want to buy anything.
