The Wellbutrin ad keeps freezing my browser, it only appears when this ad flashes, and it seems to be only this ad. Anybody else having the same problem with it?

It happens to me when the one that flashes across the screen asking you to take a questionniare comes up. I can't go forward and have to go back first which is very frustrating.

I turn off my Javascript in my browser preferences, as well as have my pop-up blocker on, whenever I come to this particular internet site. It loads much faster and you don't have all the blinking ads all over the page, which slows the loading process as well as being annoying, LOL! :P

Cautionary, though: You have to give up using the outline feature, however, if you turn off your Javascript. It won't work without your Javascript turned on. Since I don't use that feature, it's no loss to me. Also, if you want to edit your board preferences or your profile, you'll have to turn the Javascript back on to do so. You CAN read people's profiles with Javascript turned off, just not be able to edit your own.

That may be the "price" you have to pay for not upgrading to the Express Yourself option.

I HATE ADS! I especially hate pop-unders....and now, these ads that "expand" if you dare scroll over them at all!
