I also encountered this ad and thought it was strange that it would appear on IMDb.
I ended up deleting my browser history and cookies to get rid of the ad.
Note: When you do this, you will be required to log into IMDb and other web sites again.

Hi Missy,
Even though I deleted cookies from my browser, I am still getting ads for KY products. So far I have not seen ads for Trojan condoms since deleting deleting browser cookies. At best, deleting cookies is a partial solution.
I've included an obscured version of the KY product ad for reference that appears a the right. At the bottom of the ad there is the text "ad feedback". I recommend clicking on the link and indicating that the ad is not relevant to the page you are viewing. Similar banner ads a the top of the page, unfortunately, do not have an "ad feedback" link.
Clicking of the "ad feedback" link does not directly remove the ad from the page, but may make it less likely to appear on the page for you in the future.
In my specific case I was reviewing an IMDb image list used to create a poll.
The ad does not appear on the poll or results page of:
Poll: Spirit Awards Fashion Face-Off: Graphic Patterns
However, it appears on the list:

Cate Blanchett and Serena Scott Thomas dazzled with bold patterns on the Spirit Awards Red Carpet. Who wore it best?

I get this ky ad too. I have submitted feedback. This is ridiculous to me that these are the ads they are displaying on a movie database website. I can understand I guess If my browsing history would indicate these are products I am interested in, but I have not browsed for anything remotely close to these products.

Well, Dan, it won't kill me, but I would rather not have to explain to my 11 year old daughter (who looks up info on imdb) about ky.

I'd suggest AdBlock. It's free and remove ads from all your websites including Youtube. You may have to allow certain pages like, 4oD, ITV Player & Demand5 to have full access but that's so they can get paid.
