Amen...but ever since I switched to Windows 7 x64, it's nowhere near as good as it used to be. On my old XP machine, I didn't see any of this crap...diggable/buryable ads and all. Now I see almost everything, without the little "block" tab that I used to have. Now I have to figure out what to block for every page.
dear digg, i know that ads are important for your business operation, but this dragon age ad is horrible. When more people complain about it on the comment section, the more people will be exposed to adblock plus from other commenters. i believe this is called 'collective intelligence'.btw,i wonder what diggers will say when digg change this ad to Dead or Alive Beach Volleyball ?

Story I first noticed it on. It there every time I refresh, but only on that submission that I have seen so far.<a class="user" href="http://digg.com/tech_news/In_Guantanamo_Film_Premieres_on_BitTorrent" rel="nofollow">http://digg.com/tech_news/In_Guantanamo_Film_Premi ...</a>Seems to be in certain categories. Found it in tech news and gaming news for the couple that I checked. Same skin for both of those sections.

Using the Firebug addon for FireFox, you can disable the ad.With ad, <a class="user" href="http://imgur.com/5GEHm.png" rel="nofollow">http://imgur.com/5GEHm.png</a>Without ad, <a class="user" href="http://imgur.com/bhacE.png" rel="nofollow">http://imgur.com/bhacE.png</a>Using Firebug to remove ad:<a class="user" href="http://imgur.com/YfvAi.png" rel="nofollow">http://imgur.com/YfvAi.png</a><a class="user" href="http://imgur.com/QdpJZ.png" rel="nofollow">http://imgur.com/QdpJZ.png</a>By analysing the changes, you can see that in order to remove the ad, the following styles need to be applied:body {-moz-background-clip:border;-moz-background-inline-policy:continuous;-moz-background-origin:padding;background:#E5ECF3 none repeat scroll 0 0;}#container {max-width:1200px;}
