272657 2004-09-15 23:15:00 I'd suggest also look at your hosts file - you can find many references to how to alter it by doing a search here on PressF1. I get no ads at all :D

(sorry IDG) :8}

272659 2004-09-16 01:57:00 With regards to the Xtra ad. As mentioned previously, the ad has only a few days left to run. But the agency that books these ads has been told if we get another ad that causes such problems we'll take it down until the problem is fixed, and our ad trafficing guy in house will take an ad down that causes such problems. Of course we have to know abiout the issue, so if get any problems such as this Xtra ad has caused, by all means post but also email me to alert me to the issue. Biggles (121)
272660 2004-09-16 01:59:00 Also, just been told that the ad will be removed from the pages like reply forms where its been causing the most problems. Biggles (121)
272661 2004-09-16 04:08:00 .... and further to that, the Flash ad has been repleced by a plain old Gif one now. Biggles (121)
272662 2004-09-16 05:53:00 So no more dodgy images then?

Its safe to fire up a web-browser that doesnt have them blocked?
