  • When a video hosted online somewhere manages to load the adverts perfectly then for some reason not load the actual video, then when you refresh the page yet more adverts start up before the video again which manages to load straight away the second time.

    Also that more and more sites require the window to be open in order to play the adverts and they'll pause otherwise, meaning I have a few windows floating around with adverts playing whilst I get on with actual useful stuff on another window. Swear I had a case the other day where the player had to actually be visible, if it was obscured by another window it paused as well.
