LED Museum ads

axd · May 1, 2009

Hello,

Is there a way to browse the LED museum pages without being flooded with a widget that multiplies itself over the page, making reading impossible? :scowl:

Hmm, I'm not sure that I'm experiencing the same thing that you are. I'm using Mozilla and perhaps it's displaying differently for me.

Can you better describe the specific thing that's happening?

EDIT:

If you're just referring to the ad page, I usually just put the cursor on the side bar boundry and pull it over to the right side of the page, effectively minimizing the ad page. Not sure if that helps or not.

Firefox with Adblocker & I don't have that problem... :thinking:

+1, as much as I love how fast Google Chrome loads, I still use Firefox exclusively just for the ad blocking.

You should give it a try, since the entire thing is free and only takes a couple of minutes; just download/install this: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/, then click this (it installs automatically): https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/1865 .

I don't see anything wrong with that page, I think you need to install an adblocker or maybe remove malware installed on your computer.

Hmm, I have no ad block but don't see what you are talking about.

Running Firefox 3.1b2 here with no problems on that site. I have pop-up blocking turned on.

I'm using Firefox 2.0.0.14 with NoScript - and no, it's not related to version -2-.

In fact, it's the Shockwave object in the right pane (from wickedlasers.com) that duplicates itself on the page as long as it hasn't been allowed to show (NoScript blocks it initially).

Same situation for the left pane - again the wickedlasers.com Shockwave.

Meanwhile, found the workaround: just allow the Shockwave object through. Nasty...

This is the first instance I've heard of something on my website "screwing the pooch" as it were...

I've viewed it with several browsers, and have not yet been able to replicate the described behaviour.
