In many cases these web sites will use flashing lights, recorded audio files, or other distracting and annoying features in order to make you pay attention to them. If these types of pages are being opened by adware, then they can quickly become annoying, especially if you have your computer speaker on.

These types of web pages should also be treated with caution as many of them request that you do surveys and provide contact information in order to win a free prize.
