Default stupid ads

okay i know there was a thread on this a little while ago but its happened to me now twice. I'll have just this forum opened and i'll be opening the threads I want to read in a different tab when I start to hear some ad start playing its audio. it's annoying because it interrupts anything I'm doing like listening to music. I know jon said that this wasn't supposed to happen so I thought I would give ya'll a heads up.
the one that happened most recently was the finish dishwasher soap commercial. Oh and even though I search the tabs I can never figure out which one is playing it

Happened to me four times today...er, yesterday. I think the ads pop up at random. Kinda creepy to be reading a thread in quiet then suddenly hear your computer talking.
