I agree, the S&W advertisement needs to be muted from the get go, with the option to listen or click on it as the user wishes. It has become so irritating I am considering staying off M4C for a little while until it gets fixed. ARFCOM doesnt even have this level of annoyance with the advertising.

This site is a great source for discussion, information, and networking, but this is going to end up driving some of the core knowledge away if there isnt some fix. I dont mind the advertisements, but the sound needs to be mute optional, and not restart each page or section navigated. M4C, please fix this.
