I do use NoScript in FF and I use FF all the time. The ad was a Honda ad, but it seemed to last for at least a full minute.

I assume this regards a banner ad on the forums. If you see an objectionable ad, post a thread about it in Feedback. The site admins do watch there, and try to remove bad ads. Like popups, page redirects, and earnest Windoze ads.
