In addition to Marc's recommendations, the AdBlock Plus extension (now
available for both Firefox and Internet Explorer) helps tremendously.
You can locate it at www.adblockplus.org.

*Subject:* web pages, refreshing
Hi Jed,
I believe I have encountered a similar situation while working
with one of my clients. Based on this description, it sounds like
the webpage is loaded with advertisements and other dynamic
content that is causing the page to refresh and making the process
of reading the page with Window-Eyes very difficult. If you are
using Internet Explorer you might want to try using the
Window-Eyes options to control automatic page refreshes. If you
are using Firefox, I would suggest you check out the free NoScript
add-on which can do wonders to make these types of pages much
simpler to access. Below, I will include a link to the NoScript
add-on as well as the information from the Window-Eyes manual
regarding controlling automatic page refreshes in Internet
Explorer. Good luck!

Controlling Automatic Page Refreshes
The refresh rotor hot key, which is reached with Alt-Shift-M by
default, allows you to control any refreshes that may take place
on the web page. Flash objects or other web page content can cause
the page to reload. When this happens, Browse Mode may reactivate,
download the updated page, and place you back at the top of the
buffer. Since this can hinder productivity, you have the option of
controlling when Window-Eyes allows pages to reload. There are
three options: Suspend Off, Suspend Flash, and Suspend All. If
suspend off is chosen, Window-Eyes will always allow the page to
reload. If suspend all is active, Window-Eyes will never allow the
web page to reload. If suspend Flash is active, Window-Eyes will
only block Flash objects from reloading the web page. By default,
Window-Eyes is configured to suspend all page refreshes. Note that
this feature works only in Internet Explorer.
Regards,
Marc

Hey guys,
I need some help on how to get around this issue.
I was trying to read a news article today, and I see this on web
pages a
lot.

And I see other stuff like facebookcross domain.
I'll be in the middle of reading a news article and it'll say

Any way to fix this so I can read what I'm looking to get without

It's very annoying
