Newgrounds uses pop-up advertising. These could be blocked using the browser or add-on software, except that to use the site, users would have to configure an exception for Newgrounds, exposing them to the advertising.
Linking to an item on Newgrounds can only be made to a launch page, where the reader has to find and click on a Watch this movie button. Clicking this button spawns a pop-up window showing the flash file. Users cannot link directly to a page with the flash file without the interstitial launch page.
