Samsung's PIA has me turning off Smart Hub. Try that but maybe it's in shop or demo mode? Did you set it up to take it out of shop/demo mode?

I love my Samsung TV, It simply one of the best pictures I have ever seen on a led so you can imagine how impressed I was, well until about 2 weeks ago. I don't watch terrestrial tv, just because I have plenty of tv and blue rays and internet to watch content my way and by my choice. I was on the hdmi channel like I usually am, with xbmc there watching my movies. Yet I am getting a 20-30 second add up. Not only is this add popping up every 3-6hours(not really sure but its like 1-2 times a day I notice it.) but I cant ever stop it when it does, only thing I can do is turn my tv off and on.
I don't know how people feel about this but I didn't buy a TV to get advertising sent to me on a hdmi chanel. I cant believe Samsung have done this. Unfortunately I now will not invest any more in a Samsung product, its a shame because apart from the adverts its a great tv, but force feeding people content they don't want or ask for from the company you buy a tv from is unacceptable.
Personally if they want to have adverts on their tv then give the customer the tv for free, I still wouldn't want one. Does anyone else have this issue
