Ads By Google Glitching
All day, my ads By Google on the site has been screwed up. Rather than aligning horizontal, and looking normal, its been going verticle, and making posts un-readable. Its a little annoying.

Didn't know if someone spoofed up the code, or if its just me?

Screen shot of what Im talking about:

I've noticed that too. Sometimes they show up in the middle of a long thread toward the bottom. I'm just glad those roll over ads are gone.

Like I mentioned above, it will be looked into.
I would imagine the coders here do not work weekends, so they will not get my email until Monday.
Then they can look into it.

If the ads are dropping down as in Steve's screenshots, it is probably a line of code.

Strange how many of us though do not see that happening, even without a pop up blocker.

Make sure you have the latest Windows updates for IE 6 or 7, or the latest Firefox update if you are running Uncle Bill's OS.

Yes, but there are no ads in my snapshot above.
The one that shows is Steve's picture he inserted.

Well; the google ad just did that to me when I posted earlier & I mean it was identical to that screen cap.

Why do you say that was added?
