I realize it’s flash, of course, and I’m glad for you that it’s easily blockable. You must know by now that I’m happy with you blocking whatever you wish, as long as you’re the one knowingly doing the blocking on your computer. Hopefully you only block stuff that you find unreasonable and you keep the website owner in mind.
Yes, I should have mentioned the CPU usage. It does run actively so that it does it’s pulsing thing. I noticed it’s animation slow down by more than half when the window lost it’s focus (on OS X. Don’t know if Windows is smart enough to do that.) Can’t say that it’s bothering my computer anyway.

Are you sure that Visual Steel is responsible for this technology?
Why do they make no mention of it anywhere on their site (badly in need of a redesign)?
The ads look mildly interesting, I would like to know who the creator(s) is.
