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?

At work, it's banners with IE. At home, DVDTalk kept crashing Firefox.
I'm having all kinds of problems.

And, ironically, what ad shows up when I click in here. We're trapped like rats.

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