    Default trouble with site question

    I am having trouble with the ads on here. when I go to a posting the ad at the top will cover the links that say , Forum*main*post title to give an example. so when I want to go back to the section that I was in I have to hit the home button and go all the way back through to get to the area where I was, my question is this is there a way for admin or me or someone to fix this problem? thanks for the help. and I am sorry if i am asking in the wrong place, just move me to the right area. and here is the thing it is not every time either. just sporadic.

    I stopped all the pop-up ads on the board, on my home page and on other sites! Download for free "adblockplus". It works so well! Just Google it.

    Default How do you turn off talking commericals while on QB?

    I was on QB for about 4 minutes when a woman started talking about toothpaste. Does anyone know how to turn off talking ads when viewing a QB post?

    I just got the talking toothpaste commercial, it sounded like one of the informercials that are on in the middle of the night, i was on qb reading vintage machine threads, i just muted it and hope it doesn't come back, there wasn't any visible ad on the screen when it came...just a mystery i guess

    i do not get any commercials- talking or not- check your (pop-up) settings on your computer- then check your settings (at the top of this page-near your profile link) something is not (set) the way you want it.
