I'm not sure if this is the right place to post this, or whether anyone here has any control over it. But I'm finding the roll-over ads a bit frustrating today. I was trying to log in today, and I was trying to bring my cursor up to click "Log in", and twice in a row a dumb Sprint ad got in my way. Also, when I went to the Fashion thread to see Jillian's last post, right in the middle of the thread, I got a roll-over ad. I have no idea where it came from or why it appeared way down there.
Thanks.

Thanks. Hi Libby, I'm sorry to learn of this problem with the ad service. It seemed that other ProBoards forums also had pop-up ads, judging from their support forum posts today. Anyone who experiences this type of problem ad, or ads that expand or generate sounds, can send a report directly to ProBoards engineers. Simply take a screenshot, and press CTRL + ALT + R (try it now if you like) . This will bring up a form, and fill in all of the info. Then attach your screen image. ProBoards will use this report to track down a specific ad service. Best wishes, Joe

It didn't do that today, and I've never experienced it before yesterday, or at least not as noticeably. I'm not sure how to take a screenshot anyway.

Hi Libby,
I've had to report one of these problem roll-over ads on my forum (not this one). The ad even stayed on the reporting screen so I hope I filled out the info OK.
To take a screenshot, hit your 'printscreen' buttton and open MS Paint or image program. Then Paste the image, save the file, then upload to a site like Photobucket.
Many thank, Joe

I did have another one in the middle of a thread last night. If it keeps up I might try what you said.
