That's the only one you find annoying? I find most all of them annoying, that's why I use an ad blocker plugin for FF.

its not that it only bothers me visually, its that It interferes when I try to surf the forum.. the ad does not retract to its original place..

I can see how they'd get annoying, but I like seeing the banners. It adds color to the forums. I don't like seeing the same thing over and over, I like some change. :)

What version of fx are you using? What plugins do you have? Lots of us use Firefox and don't have the issue you're seeing. In order to fix it, we need to replicate it. And right now, I can't.

Couldn't agree more. However, at times I find some of the banner designs to be well designed and eye catching.

Using FF here, and have never seen the peel banner, though I am vaguely aware of its existence 'cause I've read about it.

Im currently using Internet Explore 6 on this lap top and they dont seem to bother me, but it wouldnt be a bad idea to install that ff plugin if it's getting pretty messy :D

I am too lazy my friend ...I have IE tab installed. I switched rendering for this site and still don't see an issue.

Have you considered updating fx to the latest release? You're way behind. ;)

I have seen this block appear on sites when the computer doesn't have the latest version of flash installed. Do you have the latest version from the Adobe website? http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer :)
