Have you ever seen that ad in the bottom banner position? Is there any tool in that version of Chrome to examine that ad? I'd need to know where it's coming from.

@Clarity I've never seen it at the bottom, but I've never looked for it there.

I can long press on the banner ad to copy the URL without opening it - I just didn't remember to do it at the time. If it comes up again I'll try to do that.

Just a quick note/comment to the team;

For some reason BP is locking up my browser (FF) at a much higher than normal clip. It's extremely slow at best, locks up at worst.

I've done all the normal maintenance things for my PC, other sites aren't doing it. It's just BP.

Hmm. I use Firefox to do the 10 minute perpetual reload of the site, and haven't had any issues. When you go to 'Addons' (in the Firefox tab), and 'Check to see if your Extensions are Up to Date', are things like Shockwave up to date? What other add-ons do you have?

Do you have access to Chrome? Not asking you to switch. Just wonder if you see the same behavior there or not.

Installed flashblock and it seems to have helped.

OK, the new wrinkle with the State Farm ad is seriously obnoxious. The blasted thing is dropping down in the center of the screen so you can't read the posts under it, and won't close up. Surely this is not something anyone wants happening.

What ad position(s)? I need a place to start.

Are we 100% certain this expansion is happening automatically and with no mouse over or any other input?

Is someone able to post a screenshot?

What page were you on, and did you happen to catch what ads were on the page?

Anything like that is piggybacking on a valid ad. So I'd have to figure out which one.

The good news is I can see from the link it's one of the 300x250 box ads. So now the question is which ad.

I logged in on the home forum screen and it booted me there immediately after signing in. I didn't have time to see any ads.
