Green type in threads - Vibrant In Text Advertising

Anyone else finding the green text pop ups as annoying as I do?

Other companies that offer this service let you turn it off...anyone know where the OFF switch is for this one?

I noticed it this morning when I was signed out...I think they only show for non premier members.

Edit: I just saw redlude's post and I saw the advertising in Firefox.

The first is the word Sedan on Garnet Canuck's post.

The second is the pop up.

I hate those pop ups. In this picture, the green words cause the pop up message to appear. This is in Safari on a Mac.
