left side ads

ok sorry i dont mean to be a hassle i know youve gotten alot of complaints about it and this isnt just a mindless complaint. ive noticed that 75% of the time when i go into any thread or forum or typing a new post that the white bar of ads ont he left side ends up centered in the page and its all black and you have to scroll wayyy over to the right where the actual forum is a tiny bar along the right side. does this happen to anyone else?

Must be something with your browser or something, I've never had that problem.

What browser and version are you using?

netscape! *snickers* sorry.

I have Netscape 7.1 (for testing only), and I don't see the same issue. I know that Netscape 6 was so buggy that it was almost unusable. I went right from 6 to 7.1, so I don't know if there was still issues with 7.0. But I would see what you are describing with version 6. The issue is not really with the text ads at the left, but how your browser is interpreting the code of the entire page. And especially the CSS code.....short for Cascading Style Sheets.

I know that there are some people that hate old Bill Gates so much that they will not use Microsoft products. Or just the "down with the man" idea lead people to alternate browsers. And competition is good, except that the competition browsers for Internet Explorer are just problematic.

Upgrade to the latest Netscape, or break down and use Internet Explorer which is a much more stable browser.

Im pretty sure you can download a free version of IE from the windows site. Or you can get Mozilla, which is by far the best Browser out there, for free. Go to google search for Mozilla.

i may do mozilla instead. i used to use IE but one day i got this massive spam attack and it completely took over my browser, i used adaware spybot i did selective startup blah blah it wouldnt go away every time i logged on no matter how many times i changed my home page back to normal(cyberfret.com lol)it reset to some college girls blahblah website so i got so sick of it that i started hacking around the computer and ended up somehow removing internet explorer completely.

Thats what is cool about Mozilla. It has a built in pop-up blocker. Its pretty killer.
