The creative should not disable fields or functionality on the site.
If the creative contains program calls to another site, or executable files, please inform DNS and test accordingly.

DNS traffic will target browsers that work with the ad through our ad server.

Sound

HTML/rich media creative should not contain sound unless it is click-initiated or approved for the site it is appearing on. Please check with your account manager for more information.

Flash click action (see below for details)

Advertiser needs to embed the click tag in the SWF:

on(release) {

                getURL(_level0.clickTag, "_blank");

                }
