Pop-up with above title has started to appear between responses to threads. I find this intrusive to say the least. Let me know if its just me and I will wet the sponge and wipe my hard drive clean

OK, this crap is coming in after the first post on each thread. I am sure people on here who are a lot wiser than me can get rid of it in an instant. Please feel free to do so. I will forever be in your debt

its part of the website's advertising. its how the administrators pay bills.

How come I have never ever seen it?

Is it because of the board view that I use?

There is one that says 'ads by google' and another thats for the Co-op!! I suppose the latter is OK cos it was founded in Rochdale. And they are the only outfit that Bob Dylan has allowed to use his music for an advert. As for seeing dead people, I'd recommend increasing the amount of water in your 'spirits' :D What I cant figure is why it has a header saying ' could be interesting stuff to click on' where a normal post shows the day and time

This will block the ad in I.E. 6 & 7. The title will still show up in the blue bar but the ad will get blocked:

Got to:

Tools-Internet Options-Security-Custom Level:
Scroll down toward the bottom to find
"Scripting"
\"Active Scripting"

and change it to "disable"

Many thanks. That works perfectly. A small side effect is it stops me selecting smilies:( (I turned it back on for that one)

If you browse in hybrid, like i do, you don't see any ads.

Guys, it my advertising via google ads. I get a couple cents when you click on it. It's a way to pay for the hosting. I just added it. You see it on may other boards, just ignore it. It's there to get the lurkers to click on. I got to pay the bills some how.

bimmernut. com 1,986 2 0.10% $0.20 $0.40

you guys barely click on the ads anyway. I may move them so they are less distracting, but I want to see how it goes.

I think this has been mentioned before - how about a small subscription fee? The help, advice and good humour that this forum presents via it's regular users must be worth something.....E34's were new to us all once!
