    A Bit of A Problem....Very Irritating

    I've noticed that when I try to click on the links in the little blue bar like 'Quick Links' or 'Search' the menu that scrolls down gets caught behind advertisements. I suppose it must be like that in order to maintain a contract ie it can't be covered up. Wouter, is ther anyway it can be moved, like to the bottom or something so this doesn't happen? Here, take a look at what I mean....

    Holy cow. What res are you running? 640x480? Well, if you could increase your resolution, that would make a big difference. The ad might not be over enough to cover those up if you are able to increase your res.
    I'm going to eat breakfast. And then I'm going to change the world.

    It is just sooooo simple, get a subscription and you can run any resolution without having to worry about advertisements because they are not there!!!

    Or you guys could download Mozilla/WinPatrol/SpyBot/AdAware/and a good pop-up blocker. The combination of these programs is deadly, spyware/popups will cringe at the site of you're computer if you download them, all free.

    I'm afraid there is little we can do about this, it has to do with the nature of the ads. Some of them use Flash technology, which seems to be incompatible with these drop down menus. I'll have Frank look at it to see if he can figure out a way to combat the problem.

    Our apologies for the inconvinience.

    What are you trying to say, the exact same problem happens with Firefox. If you are implying that Ultimatecarpage.com is distributing spyware, then let this be your and all other member's final warning. We are very strict in not letting spyware sneak in and very successful to keep it out. Accusations of this nature will no longer be tolerated and in the future will result in a ban of at least one day.

    Thanks for your consideration.
    If you should see a man walking down a crowded street talking aloud to himself, don't run in the opposite direction, but run towards him, because he's a poet. You have nothing to fear from the poet - but the truth.
