![]() I don't know if it's just my machine, or what. When I click on a thread that I want to see, an ad will appear in the banner, at the top, and the page I want will appear right below that except when the "Courtyard by Marriot" ad comes up in the rotation. The Courtyard banner comes up, and that's it. Nothing else happens. The page I clicked on doesn't appear; only the Marriot ad. At least so far, this has not happened with any of the other ads.

![]() Me too, even on my super fast work computer it does the same. I have to click back and forth a couple times for it to work. I hope we can fix this.

![]() For whatever reason I have not seen a single ad in the forum. I don't know why, but i'm sure not complaining!

These adds do seem to be slowing things down a lot. Adblock plus is a great addon, but does not work with all adds.

![]() No problems here w/ advertisements, but I'm experiencing persistent slow page loads when moving from various forums. So much so that I've needed to exit and relaunch, at times needing to exit/relaunch several times.
Seems to be isolated to this site; I've many other windows/sites open without this problem. No problem with pop-up ads, though.

![]() Those Marriott ads prevent me from viewing when clicking & moving to the 'NEW POST' tab.
Hope it can be rectified... ![]()

![]() OK heres how you disable the adds go to tools/internetoptions/security/ apply the maximum highest security level for this zone
so in other words slide the little bar all the way to the top this will apply the maximum security and not allow the down loading of any activeX script Just know that if you go to sites that use flash player to display content you will have to add that site to your trusted site list in order to get the activX controls to work

![]() ok i figured out a better way you can apply thouse setings to just Banana.org insted of the hole linternet go to the tools then internet options sacurity tab at the top you will see the icon's click on the one that says intranet a window will open click on the advanced tab you will see a window with Banana,org in it nexst to that is a butin that says add click that close the windo then rase the silder bar up all the way this will apply a high leveal of sacurity to just Banana.org any questions refer to my first post betwen the two it sould be clear but if your going to wach any vido or sound file on Banana.org you are going to have to lowere your sacurity setings to see or hear them
