There is an advertisment blocking a part of the text, making it hard to read; it`s about 50x100mm 4x2`. There doesn`t seem to be any way to move it or remove it, is this only on my screen?

I think (and I can be hard of thinking) it happens when an oversized photo appears in a post

LEON,--------- hold the Ctrl key down then rotate the mouse wheel.... It won't get rid of the advert but you might be able to view a bit better...As BEESABRYAN says it's usually when an oversized photo is posted ( Hey guys---keep it to 640 x 480 please)

There's a simple, reliable (and free) way to sort out ads - adblock plus.
I haven't had any advertising on my 'puter for years :)

Adblock won't remove this it is part of the site, I sometimes get it when using my tablet but viewing the same thread on my laptop it is OK.

Arr ha! the photo seems to be the cause; any thread with a photo has an ad, threads without a photo are clear. I might try some Whiteout on the screen. I`ll leave it to Alan to sort out.
