At the start of this thread Dan claims the horizontal banners are an ad server problem, it's not about the ad in general, it's about the lack of readbility because of these ad's. If they are there on your request then my apologies for the complaint, but I gathered from Dan's post that they are not meant to be there like that. Take a look at this thread for an example of what it does to the page:

When someone only posts 2 or 3 lines of text 75% of the screen is filled with black rectangles to fit the banner at the side...

That black area on that thread is something new to me. It could be just bad HTML-ing on my part; I'll check that template against the others to see. Thanks for the heads-up on that.
As for the big ad you mentioned at the beginning of this ad, that was something that appeared on your browser, but I couldn't dupe on mine. The ads down the right column are hardcoded to show up as 120x600. There definintely shouldn't be any 340*640 banners running here.
