No problem with PC World on Firefox or IE6/7.

Its been doing the same thing for me these last few days. I think it is all the ads on the press f1 site. I am now using firefox.

Needs an add blocker like Firefox.

What is "privoxy"?

This it blocks ads etc (sourceforge.net) it should work in any browser. You have to put 127.0.0.1 and port 8118 under the proxy (in the browser first), before it'll work. If you want to try it, click on the Win32 download (If youre using windows that is)

Aah, but Opera 10 is known to be unstable - it's only in alpha!

I haven't experienced this problem with either version 9.6 or 10 of Opera.

Platform: Gentoo x86_64, all 64bit native plugins.
