Anyone else rather the adverts on Genes were silent?? The latest wannadoo one was playing tennis yesterday and earlier on, and now it's playing the piano at me!! I am not a morning person!! I like peace and quiet with my cuppa in the morning!! Need to have the sound on computer turned on so that I can hear the alerts that I want to hear - definitely don't need noisy adverts as well!!!!!!

....and now there's a noise that sounded a bit like a heart beating - but I'd clicked onto a different page before I saw what they were advertising!! Still far too early in the morning for all that noise!!

I don't get any ads just an empty box - maybe due to settings on Norton Firewall??? Maz. XX

I keep my sound permanently off now - I get an annoying clonk every time I switch messages or pages - and that darn woman on the printer who tells me i'm out of paper or I have two more pages to print drives me nuts !!! ~:o)
