    They're Google ads. If you're seeing things for Playboy, Google thinks you like things like that. If you'd like to see what Google thinks of you, see http://www.google.com/ads/preferences -- it's a list of automatically determined categories they've put you in.

    That said, if you see anything really inappropriate (porn, gold selling), follow the advice of Dark Side and we'll get it taken care of.

    Opera > Firefox>Chrome>Internet Explorer, Im pretty sure Opera has a built in Ad Blocker, plus it's awesomely customizable.

    Never minded ads (as long as they're reasonably appropriate) since without them, free sites couldn't be free!
