Am I the only one having an issue with the double banner ads blocking the navigation tabs on the home page?

I have this problem as well.

It's kind of starting to piss me off...

Most of the time, if I click somewhere else on the page, it will minimize itself. Give that a shot, it works for me.

Everyone who is still experiencing this, we need URL's for these ads if you can provide them. Thank you.

Umm.. I haven't had this problem, but something worse.

My whole entire guru page got taken away and re-directed to some stupid site promoting a Nokia phone, and it said I will be re-directed back to guru in 6 seconds, and counting down.

I just instantly closed it, and it happened again as I was typing this post so I have had to re-write the whole thing.

Seriously ... what the hell, that is just way over-stepping it. Is this simply something related to ad-ware, or is this guru now doing this? I am logged in at the time of this happening, any insight - hopefully some from Inde too, would be appreciated.

Brianna, it is not supposed to be redirecting. Please grab the URL and we'll get that removed immediately.

Edit: Brianna I just got it too. I have the URL.

Thanks Inde, I just got another one redirecting me to a Revlon makeup site, It just says ''please take a minute to visit our sponsors''.

I was just worried it might be a problem on my end, but if you have had it too - and have it under control then that eases me a lot, thanks again!

EDIT: Meh, I just got attacked with the ads. I got two URLS;

*http://66.135.48.75/8018/h.html

*http://66.135.59.198/8018/h.html

(Don't click them unless you want ad's).

Seems to be the same place doing this, I can't even post on my main computer with FF2 because every time I go to guru it highjacks my page and sends me to these ads..
