It's trying to act like it's a youtube video, with the woman and the stars trying to deceive you, but nope.
It's clever but wow.

You know - i've seen that advertisement before and i've never even put the 2 together. If it would have had the play button on there and paused then i might have thought.

I love the ones that look like they've got stuff in them, but really the whole thing is just a gif link. There must be a lot of stupid people out there that click on these things.

"Click to rate your mortgage"
Erm...I wonder who actually tries to do that.

Obviously tons of people since you see it everywhere.

I would only work with a mortgage company that advertises with silhouettes of dancing people.
I just replied to some guy from Nigeria whose dad got in a rough spot. By this afternoon I expect my bank account to be brimming full. Can't wait. Until then though, I am gonna keep clicking on these mortgage rate deals. One can never be to safe with one's money.

I just use Adblock Plus, the hosts file from mpvs.org, and NoScript... Plenty of blank spaces, few stupid mortgage ads.

Ditto! Firefox is truly a great browser. The only ads that I rarely sees is the one put in by the site itself such as the bikeforum ad's between some of the posts.
