Thanks for th the heads up. I haven't seen anything like what you refer to but I don't need to hear/see it. If it bothers you, that's enough for us and I beleive that Michael has worked with the online ad agency (it's Engage, one of the largest there is) to "firewall" such ads from the FT board area. Again thanks and I hope it is solved, but I will ask around here to make sure it didn't get handled without followup.
