Royal mail banner

[grantw]

Is that Royal Mail flash banner screwing up the forum for anyone else? It's taking 30 seconds to load a page for me whenever the banner is shown?

Seems to work OK for me in Firefox. Maybe the posties are on strike in your area Grant??

Fine for me in ie7

hmmm, really screwing me up. The page with the flash banner actually loads OK, if I then click on a link I have to wait for the animation to finish before the next page opens! I knew I should've given the postie a christmas tip

Its a Google adsense banner, how do I block it?

@ Admin, right click on the Royal Mail banner and copy the link address, paste it in to notepad and look for the part in the url that starts with:

adurl= h t tps:// www. royalmailorwhateverdomainhere .com

Once logged in to your Adsense account, click the AdSense Setup tab, then Competitive Ad Filter, then add only the royalmailorwhateverdomainhere .com part of the link to the box and click save changes.

If I right-click the banner all I get is Flash player settings, no link.

Sorry, didn't see it was a flash banner , my computer doesn't display flash and I missed the bit about it being flash in the first post, thought it was a standard Adsense banner.

Hmmm, maybe get someone to click the banner for you and copy the url it goes to so you can block it as above.

Don't worry about it admin if it's only affecting me. I can live with it.

Thanks, Grant
