    These adverts..

    I've got decent anti-virus stuff n all that on my lap-top but I'm getting this seriously annoying advert pop up from the bottom of the screen..

    The sodding thing just gets bigger and bigger until I take it off..

    Me too, Dazzy. It keeps getting bigger then suddenly goes smaller so when I try and click on the 'X' to try and get rid of it, I invariably miss it or end up clicking on the ad itself.

    I'm also getting ads popping out of the right hand side of the screen and videos which seem to start playing spontaneously. I've now got my lap top on mute, just for that reason.

    I'm able to read and post much more than a few weeks ago, but still a bit hit and miss. I actually tried to reply to this post earlier in the day but the page got timed out when I hit reply...

    :/ Don't get me started on this, I'll blow a gasket.

    I hate what they've done to this board.

    I think I've said it before, but there's going to be no-one left to advertise to, given how difficult the board is becoming to use ...

    Couldn't post at all last night, Dazzy. Five attempts. Got timed out each time.

    Last week, the stalky ads were in full flow, having just followed me to where I buy my underwear (always follows me there for some reason). When I tried to read the board, I just kept getting a "wait" timer, followed by a pop up display of the exact items I'd just been looking at. Simply just wouldn't let me read anything. Each time I clicked the pop up shut, and tried to click on a post, up it popped again. Apart from being really creepy and intrusive, I was here to read the board, not look at underwear! Grrrr

    Dazzy, are you still getting that pop up, my friend?

    It seems to be getting worse. Can't close it at all about half the time now ... then the board just freezes ...

    Getting increasingly difficult even to read, never mind post ...
