Google Chrome has turned my computer screen into the Las Vegas strip. It is very distressing. How can I get Alpha Agora without going through these flights of terror?

Firefox - http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/

Then add a couple of add-on filters:
Adblock+
Ghostery
Better Privacy.
If you really want to get fancy, there is something you can add to Adblock+ that eliminates entire concepts of things on the page you're annoyed by.
