I always figured that microsoft had really bad designers, advertisers .. creative staff period .. now I know.
Their logo has always sucked.
Everything about the way they present themselves visually just sucks.

AHH! I don't like that one, but the first link, seeing as it's only a banner ad, doesn't bother me.
What I do for a page with that damn script for image-mouse 'follower' thing, I just tap my scroll wheel so it scroll down, and the image is left behind at the top/bottom of the page :)

I guess you haven't seen the full-screen-flash Redeon ads floating around.

The one I hate the most is the eliminate debt ad on some of the websites. All of a sudden a stupid voice screams, "HEY, LOOK OVER HERE IF YOU WANT TO..." at that point I close the damn browser window. The last thing I want to do is to have to mute my damn computer when surfing the internet. I need to find someway to kill banner ads from taking over my speakers.

Why does the Weather Channel need ads on their site anyway? They make a lot of money from their TV channel. weather.com is one of the slowest sites I've seen.
