Annoying ad covering required captcha
« on: April 13, 2011, 11:27:35 am »
I did the daily read four things and click on a sponser's ad for my daily fifteen cents.  At the moment where you are supposed to fill in the "captcha" and click on the final thing - page - that stays open for a minute in order to get the fifteen cents - there was an annoying banner ad totally covering the captcha - even each time I refreshed the captcha.  One of the ones that says if you don't click on in two minutes you'll lose such and such opportunity.  I waited the two minutes for it to end - and it started over again!  i was afraid to refresh the whole page, thinking I would lose the work I had done.  but I did anyway, and fortunately, that got rid of the ad without me losing my work.  I was able then to see the captcha and type it in.  But I am worried in the future if this happens I might lose what I've done by trying to refresh the whole page.  Can you get rid of this, please????
End the suffering!  Get your cats - and all strays and ferals - spayed and neutered!

I haven't had any problems with ads covering the capcha.  But I usually have my pop-up blocker on which would help if the ad is an independant ad. 
You could also try clearing your cookies and temporary files.  Not sure why that works, but doesn't hurt and does help speed up the computer.

There are times when I don't understand what they want entered, but the I refresh the capcha and usually get something that is direct.
