At least on conventional PCs, the infolinks thing has gotten less obtrusive for me, just a little box on bottom of the screen that is easy to ignore. On my iPads its a pain though, covers close to half of the lower part of the screen. I'm not sure how to block that type of crap on iPads.
I've been getting a new irritating type of popup recently both here and on another car enthusiast forum, where I click on a thread and a full page ad comes up occasionally, I can back arrow and click the thread again and then it's OK. This is an example I got there this morning.
