I don't get the ad, but from what I've heard it has been coming up on the screen and blocking off what people are trying to read.

It's back.
And M@X, it's not a standard popup. It's a banner that expands itself and gets in the way of a large portion of the screen.
I suppose that makes it just like Kiss, an unwanted entity that forces itself into your field of vision, thinking it is endearing itself, but in reality, just makes us hate them even more.

You are correct. It does appear now only on the main pages. But It's still annoying. It starts at a regular banner, and then expands to what you see above. You have to click to close it.

Kiss my pop-ups.
 That emoticon needs a longer tongue I think.  The Ozzy ads are the one's annoying me. Primarily because they don't curse and speak unintelligibly. Edited by Slartibartfast - June 24 2010 at 17:41 |

Released date are often when it it impacted you but recorded dates are when it really happened...

Kiss the Kiss Pop-up Ads goodbye, I hope. You have to wait till they expand, then close it. I don't like that, but with any ad, who does.....................

It automatically expands. You have to wait for it to expand before you can close it.
Can we just go beat up Gene Simmons? Pull his tongue really hard? Spray Dr. Pepper in his eyes?
