    these new concern ad's that have appeared lately are bloody annoying as when scrolling down through the page, if your mouse passes over them scroll is blocked.

    Can this be resolved?

    Thanks in advance.

    it happens on all links for the concern ad's.

    screenshot won't really show anything as it only affects scrolling but here is one :)

    happens on the large banner ad's placed in the center of screen too.

    No problem here with the concern ad in the middle of the page. Using Win 7 and Chrome. There is a mouseover effect when you cross the ad (little stars appear) but scrolling through it works fine.

    EDIT: it is happening to me also, mouse stops at the bottom of the ad. when scrolling down. I just lost the ad before I got the link.

    I got the ad when I came back to reply.

    Both the banner (middle of the page) and MPU (bottom) stopped me scrolling.

    I'll flag it and see what, if anything can be done.

    And they would've gotten away with it, if it wasn't for those pesky marines.

    Hijacking thread

    UNICEF ad is appearing above the drop down menus from the header. I posted about it in Site Development (http://touch.boards.ie/thread/2056820959?page=1#post_82020914) and Danny said to bring it here.

    I have noticed it misbehaving sporadically but it only seems to happen on Chrome and not every time I get the ad.

    I'll see what can be done about this one, it is extremely annoying.

    any update on this Nicola, it's starting to really annoy me.

    I'm not one to use adblocking software but it's starting to tempt me....
