If you're using Firefox you can install the add on AdBlock Plus in just a few seconds and that irritating kid is history, along with any other distracting ad.

For anyone who uses Internet Explorer or who doesn't want Alex to lose revenue for Wrong Planet by blocking the advert I've made an alternative. A simple resizeable program window that acts like a bit of sticky paper you can place over the top of the annoying advert to hide it.

I can email a copy of the tiny program to anyone who wants a copy. It will work on Windows XP, Vista and should work on Windows 7 too. There is no installer. Simply run the program and drag the window over the top of the offending adverts. Send me a PM with your email address if you want a copy of the program. It is free.

I got the idea from Leejosepho who has stuck a bit of paper to his screen to hide the annoying advert! :lol:
