When I visit google finance there's always unrelated ads. From Love searching to "buy viagra". I don't understand this in a service dedicated to financial & news information

Using Chrome, I always see E-trade, Scottrade and other stock-related website display ads. They are definitely more attention-grabbing then the text-based ads were when they first introduced ads in G Finance.

In FF, I have ad block on.
