      Advertising pays for free content. If you don't like the site anyway, there should be no problem staying away. The latest innovation from the media | CommitStrip[^]

          I'm on your side bro. Forbes is horrible to begin with and then to block you from a potentially interesting article is wrong. If advertising was that important to them, they could post ads through animated gifs or do what Yahoo does and display ads from database calls (i.e. Sponsored) in between their article links, instead of offsite Flash or JavaScript; which is easy for anti-ad software to catch.

            I tried to go on there site last week following a google result, wouldn't let me on with ad blocker. I was using stock Chrome and IE as far as I was aware, so I can only assume my company has something blocking ads. Not a lot I can do about that.

            Some men are born mediocre, some men achieve mediocrity, and some men have mediocrity thrust upon them.

                Yes there is! :D Try installing Tampermonkey[^], then install Anti-Adblock Killer[^] into Tampermonkey. Worked like a charm for me. Tampermonkey has heaps of other cool scripts too, recommend checking them out.
