I have about had it with that darn Activia ad! Every time it shows up, the screen locks up! I get so tired of hitting "refresh" to get rid of it (hopefully) that sometimes I just leave iV!

There! I've had my gripe. You may all get on with your day, lol.

YEP! And it's driving me nuts. Any of those ad banners that run down the side margins are messing with my computer. Incredibly frustrating.

OK I'll report it. I'm not having that problem, mine is the ivillage survey that turns my whole screen grey and locks up progress. I'll let U know what I hear.

Ann & Teri, I reported it to the team board and the CC. There have been other complaints since the 8th , so it's being worked on. I'll let you know if I hear anything,, but if it disappears let me know (as I'm not seeing it yet )

Hi ladies! I'm sorry you've been having issues. The Activia spasms were indeed reported so I will let you know as soon as I hear more...

I agree with you Pat. The roll down ads mess with my computer too. Everything freezes until it decides it's done doing its thing.

This ad is still a PITA! Although it hasn't locked up my computer, I'm really getting tired of it getting in the way (LOL)!

If all of you would use AdBlock, you would never see any ads!!

Our member Amy told me about AdBlock and I've been using it for quite awhile now and really like it!
