Poker Industries Ad?
I seem to have problems with their Flash ad. There's other Flash ads that aren't problematic for my computer, but when this Flash ad slows down my computer, I figure it might be a problem for people with other slower computers. Once I'm able to scroll the stupid thing off my screen there's no problem, but if it's on my screen and I'm trying to type a reply, my text shows up slow, it slows down WinAmp music, and just degrades performance.
FYI: AMD Thunderbird 1.1 GHz, 1 gig RAM, IE 6.0, Win2k, Cable Internet - shouldn't be a problem, but it is.

Here's the ad that slows my computer down - I don't know why exactly it happens, but it's just for the first few seconds of the ad animation. And once I scroll it off the screen, no problems...I can live with it, just letting ya know.

Sorry to confuse...
Just try and scroll when that ad is on the screen - scrolling is jerky and hard to control, but the second it's off the screen, I'm able to scroll smoothly.
Oh well...guess it's just my problem.

But it is odd that I'm now at my parents house and have no problems with the ad. It's gotta be related to what we're running me thinks.
My Computer: IE6, Win2k
Parents Comp: IE5.5, Win98
mmmm, my new fav. smiley

I never noticed it at work, where I'm running IE6 & 2k. But now I do, and I dislike it.
