Rollover to watch ads

Maybe it is just me but these are the worst most annoying ads I have ever seen. Especially when they are to the right next to the scroll bar. Just passing over them causes the video in the case of My Secret Closet to launch every time.
What can be done to stop this?

And BTW My Secret Closet I will now never look at your add, your web site, or buy anything you have to offer. Maybe your social media people need to understand annoying users does not gain you business. You have lost the chance to earn my business forever.

Please Flyertalk, I understand the need for adds, but drop the annoying rollover adds. I can click if I want, but I hate having to watch where my cursor rests so as not to trigger one of these.

As with all troubesome ads, capturing a screen shot is vital -- otherwise we don't know what ads to look into blocking.
