Google ads displacing posts
 

Suddenly tonight, I'm getting blue and white backgrounded Ads By Google on the right part of the page. On the forum thread list page, they fit fine, but on the thread itself, the ads are a few pixels too wide, and all the posts appear below them.

Windows 7, Firefox 3.6.8, ....... disabled.

Edit to add: see post 6 for a screenshot.

I'm having similar issues too. I just looked at some threads and it seems that the 3rd post in some threads have their content being blocked.

I've seen the problem at hand before. Today, I'm experiencing a similar, but new (to me) issue.

Adds are forcing the thread content to below the viewable area on my screen, so it appears as though pages haven't loaded properly; content is still there if I scroll down.

I'm too lazy to post a screen shot or try a different browser; I'm using Chrome.

Having the same problem this evening on two separate machines, both running IE 8. Highly irritating, to say the least.

Am also having similar problems to bhatnasx and the others, with Google ads onto of 3rd/4th post in threads. These are typically green colours. The blue/white ads are hidden behind the "logout" text.

Win XP, IE8

Here's a screenshot of the issue I started the thread for.

I loaded the same page in IE8, and the problem didn't occur. Maybe it's specific to Firefox.

And I am also seeing the single ad overlaying the post text as described in posts 2 & 5.

I'm having the same problem this morning, which seemed to start just after I did some updates on my computer. When I accidentally clicked on the two-toned green box ad covering a post (hoping that I was X-ing out of it), it sent me to CheapOair.

These ads are annoying but are they temporary or more permanent? I'd surely hope a fix is in the offing.

Thanks to all for reporting in. We will certainly look into this and see what can be done to correct ASAP.

Nope, it's happening to me in Chrome so it's not just Firefox.

haha! I thought my computer was just being mean.

i am running windows vista and using internet explorer 8
 

and i get one of two items:
(1) the same as bhatnasx reported [location top two posts]; or
(2) the same as aidanc reported [location posts three and four].

this has been going on for several days now.

Tech is working on getting them removed.
Thanks for your patience!

Not a New Problem Here
 

I've had that exact same problem for several weeks. About half the time it could be corrected by using REFRESH (f5), but lately even that hasn't worked.

So it's not just me. I'm experiencing this too; in fact, it's happening on this very thread. Simultaneously, the Google ads in the right column aren't loading properly; they can't be read.
