Over the past couple of days I've noticed that my progress bar won't finish loading something on the forum. I just thought it was my wireless connection at home but it's doing the same thing here at work.

The (1 item remaining) is http://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/yaddayadda


This is the item on EVERY page I load. Just wanted to let someone know.

That's the same one that won't load for me either.

Several things seem to be off right now. The 'more smilies' button doesn't work anymore, and many of the smaller forum buttons are gone. And the google syndication ads, for what it's worth, are also missing.

Several things seem to be off right now. The 'more smilies' button doesn't work anymore, and many of the smaller forum buttons are gone--edit and quote, for example. And yes, the google syndication ads, for what it's worth, are also missing.

Sorry for the duplicate post; unable to delete it without the edit button.

make sure you can access ads.kleinman.com, if it's blocked, so are the buttons

I think that was the problem last night, not blocking, but the ad server being goofy in general as some of the buttons and ads weren't showing up for me either for a bit (around the time of Adam's post) and I don't have any ad blocking software.

It's fine now, Geoff, but didn't seem like trouble from this side. Or at least: multiple computers, with or without ad blockers, with a cleared cache. Guessing that it lasted much of the weekend, at least all my visits Sat & Sun. (Then again, you'd think there'd have been a bigger outcry with no edit or quote buttons, so dunno...)
