Not that I ever thought about Crisco and Babybel cheese but now, because of the autoplay ads that jump out and start playing whenever I happen to mouse over them...I have developed a conscious dislike of both products.

Nothing like annoying potential customers...

3. You now have a star...
Go to Options, and then Edit Your Preferences...

At the bottom of the list is a place you can click to block the ads.

Most of them will disappear.
