No, that's the way it is supposed to be.
It is a "pop-in" ad - it hovers on top of the page's content. Because it isn't a new window or a traditional banner, but rather a virtual layer, Safari's pop-up stopper and PithHelmet won't stop it.

You have to close the advertisement window by clicking the X in the upper right corner.

I guess 'Addblock' is stopping it for me?

It doesn't show up at all in OmniWeb.

Those are the worst kind of ad. Horrible for the site that hosts them although they probably bring in a lot of ad revenue.

What happened to that guy's right hand? 
Edit: Oh, I just got it. It's supposed to look like crap. Great ad, it made me think that the person who made it was lame at web design. Imagine that.

Unfortunately I know people that would design something like that and think it actually looks good.

No sign of it showing up in Camino either...
Doesn't even register as a pop-up that was blocked...
