sony ad

[admin]

Hi everyone -

Just a quick note - I've finally gotten back from Peru and am spending today to track down this ad. Apologies for the delays, just bad luck it popped up while I was out of the country.

I haven't been attacked since yesterday afternoon. That's wonderful!!

Haven't had it today yet. Cross your fingers...

stephen, it looks like you've succeeded in removing the evil ad, for which i am very grateful!

however, i have my doubts as to whether the timing was accidental---that ad was evil enough to KNOW when you were gone and that we had been left unprotected! (wiggle your eyebrows a few times, groucho-style, as you read that last part.)

Stephen ALWAYS comes through for players! It's too bad he has to take vacation time

yes...let's see that it doesn't happen again

shades of the sony ads!!

i just had a 'golden nugget' ad to the right of my puzzle (another "roll over here for details" ad that jumps out even if you don't roll over it)---suddenly their video covered most of the puzzle. i clicked and clicked on the "close x" in the upper right corner but it ignored me for quite a while--each time i clicked on it, the letters "close x" would sort of jiggle & bend and then re-set--very weird!

i was just getting ready to go the "recent games" route when it finally closed and i could get back to the puzzle.

whee!

I too have been bothered by a floating ad. Mine is something green on the left side. I didn't investigate fully, but it appears to be some sort of survey that says "your opinion counts". I believe it pops in when my mouse rolls over the link for "hate ads?", but cannot be certain. I just quickly close it to get back to my puzzle.

i've had that one, too---only once---some sort of survey---i'll pay more attention if i see it again.
but this golden nugget is really ticking me off---speaking of which, it's to the right of this page right now. i'm giving it the evil eye and daring it to expand---it seems to be working, but it's hard to do that while one is trying to solve a puzzle.
