I wondered that too, but the flash ads on mixi didn't seem to be doing
much unusual, and those flash ads were running fine (well, only one
seemed to be animating). I have the iplayer going all day long, browsing
various sites that have more than their fair share of ads, and
everything is fine.
Could be an ad network that only Mixi uses, I guess. Or some Flash on
the Mixi site itself.
