A Token D: HBO Ads Slowing Things Down

A Token D: Help! Ever since those moving advertisments started appearing on the left side of the screen, my Explorer keeps crashing when I browse HBO.

Green Libertarian: A Token D … I hear ya … I don’t use Internet Explorer, I use Firefox, and it’s not crashing per se, but since the new ads came on, my computer’s processor is nearly pegged to 100% when HBO is open on my computer, thus slowing everything down.

DFO: It was the Albertson’s ads. I badgered the techs all afternoon today to get rid of those things. And they finally did. I need two windows to post quickly. I couldn’t get the second window to open when the Albertson ads popped up. And the first window acted constipated. Those ads represent $10-12 per thousand page-views. But it isn’t worth it, if you can’t post and the readers have trouble opening the site. For the first time today, I uttered the words, “Thank goodness for my Mac.”
