There's a BMW advert that's misbehaving - it very annoyingly plays audio even if you mute it with the Flash Audio volume control. It also seems to crash the Shockwave Flash plugin after a while. Proboards have a "Report Ad" button that is used to notify them of such ads, and they're normally pretty good at zapping them. I'll report it (I need to catch it at the right time!) and check progress on their support forum. I'll report back here when it's been fixed.
In the meantime, if you have an Ad Blocker (e.g. Adblock Plus) you might want to temporarily set it to block this site. However, please note that it's the revenue from these ads that enables Proboards to supply these forums on a free basis - so if you do block the ads, please remember to disable the blocker again when the problem has been solved!
Thanks,
Alan

Murphy's Law - the ad seemed to disappear last night so I couldn't capture it, but it reappeared this morning. I've now managed to capture it and have reported it as a rogue ad.
You would have thought that a reputable company like BMW would avoid annoying people with such intrusive ads!
