Please guys, I browse toms at work and seriously the ME2 thing is not exactly work related, while the fourms and what nots I can claim to be doing IT research (the depart I'm in), but if the site is gloriously plastered with ME 2....


Just limit those to some sort of banner or what nots, not the whole outer edge and theme...

Now if I head home to digg and see it there, so not gona buy it like I did to dragon age.

lol, Best of Media dosen't care about you. Get Fire Fox + AdBlock Plus. (You can run FireFox portable at work, all ad-ins work fine on FF Portable also, including AdBlock)

Adblock Plus doesn't work on those sorts of ads though because they are not 3rd party content.

It's not a bug, it's a feature. ;)

Well in the end, used adblock plus and blocked the whole |http://m.bestofmedia.com/i/tomshardware/op/mass_effect*

and that seemed to work, so any future ME photos are gone as well I think, unless they hot link

i still need to get greasemonkey or something that kills the linking action and replace the background with white...

The problem is that it doesn't restore the site content to the top of the screen, it leaves a nice black border around the whole thing.
