WELL CRAP !!
THESE NEW POPUP ADS ARE A PAIN.
WHENEVER I OPEN THE FORUM INDEX I HAVE TO WAIT FOR A POPUP TO COMPLETE LOADING BEFORE I CAN CLOSE IT.
WORST OF ALL, I'M FINDING THAT THE POPUP PAGE DOESN'T ALWAYS LOAD AND I'M LEFT WAITING. THE ONLY WAY TO FIX IT IS TO REFRESH THE PAGE BUT THEN THE POPUP STARTS ALL OVER.
I HAVE TRIED ALL MY SETTINGS IN "PREFERENCES" AND I CAN'T OVERRIDE THEM.
IT SURE MAKES SURFING FRUSTRATING.
ANY IDEAS ON HOW TO AVOID THEM ? FIREFOX, WINDOWS INTERNET EXPLORER AND SEAMONKEY BROWSERS ARE ALL AFFECTED.

Well, I'm using Firefox and I don't have any issues with OhC! webpage and forums.

Right now I have some Herbal Essence adds. And some Office Home and Student 2007 adds.

I feel like shampooing.

I use both IE7 and Firefox 3.0.5 and haven't had any issues. Just make sure you don't put your mouse over the ad banner or it'll pop up on you...
