Help! This banner is taking me HOSTAGE!
 
If that banner ad for Hostage with Bruce Willis pops up on my screen, it really drags down my computer response time. My cursor is flashing a mile a minute, and the text is dragging on my screen. With the banner up, 32% of my system resources are in use...with it gone, I am down to 2%.

Anyone else having this problem?

The same thing happens to me whenever that ad is showing.

How come I never have any of these ad problems people make threads about every week? Oh that's right. I don't use IE.

Some of us don't have the admin authority (at work) to install another browser. :)

At work, it's banners with IE. At home, DVDTalk kept crashing Firefox.

I'm having all kinds of problems. :lol:

Are you talking about an ad here?

Do you realize that Geoff can't make money on us Otters arguing over pointless crap all day?

Save Ferris 06-17-05 04:47 PM

It was an awful movie, it deserves a bad ad.

Not only that...I just found out that we don't get paid a penny a post. :(

In other news, ads make money for Geoff. You could... you know... not have Flash installed.
