i think i did mention it above, these ads were accepted on a 1 week trial basis, which we had to honour. We already made the decision not to accept these type of ads long before they were activated on the site. This would be the first and last time these ads are used.

when the motorola ads pops up, you click to close it mah...i did that and that didn't interfere with my browsing in LYN although i must admit, it's slower than usual...

QUOTE(se7en @ Oct 9 2006, 12:57 PM) you're confusing me. sorry to reply late, i just check my inbox, everything ok alreadyis this a problem you had in the morning, or are you still having it now? We *think* we have already solved this. But if you still can't click your PM messages even now, then we might have to look into it. Could you provide a screenshot of the page where the links don't work?  thank you for your concern  is that problem cause by the advertisment ?  |

Oddly enough the ad works fine in my Musang Api. Sure, it gets in the way, but it obediently goes back to it's "kennel" when I click "close".
Sit, bubu, sit. Good dog. |

i think it's good for me. my computers do NOT have macromedia installed , so it helps me NOT surf LYN during uni.
what to do if the ad doesnt load and all you see is a white box? |
