Basically it's on only every 20 mins now and will be removed sometime tomorrow.

Haha, that advert just totalled my PC. Had to restart it and everything.

At least it's getting the attention, which is the main aim.

I'v never seen the orange advert yet. I only ever get two different ad's come up: Aura Sports and Funkypool.com.

You're kinda lucky then Farren

Do you have anything blocking adverts? Like macromedia ones?

Only pop-up blockers which are enabled all the time. I used to get loads of different ads pop up now and again. Used to get lag while on funkypool too.

However, when i started playing on here, iv had no problems at all relating to ads.

I didn't till this orange ad. Other than that i preferd this too pool for the fact i didn't find lag affected me so much on here.

Am sure nick will sort it out though.

noo! lol i got it, i see what you mean..

Oh, it's ok, just right click the ad; click quality; then change to 'low', that should sort it.

Hmmm... seems to refresh now and again though..

Have you tried lowering the quality of the image? If you right click it, theres a option which says Quality *obv* and then you can switch it to low, and stop it from looping. Should be a little tick next to it at first, click it to get rid of the tick.

Tried it a couple of times, and it's alright for a couple of minutes, but then i think the ad gets refreshed because it starts up again.

Might have to do it two/three times a game though, but it doesnt lagg as much to when the ad's running fully.

Hmm, for me the ad seems to be going away. It used to be on all the time accept when the funkypool ad comes up.

Now it's hardly ever on because of all the other ads.

Although i won't give my hopes up too soon though... just in case.
