22nd October 2008, 10:31 AM #1 GCHQ Advert Problem Whever this silly GCHQ Advert appears on a thread it completeley screws up web browsing - mouse stutters, scroll bars stutter - the PC is reduced to a complete mess.
2.33 Core 2 Duo / 2GB Ram / Raptor HDD / WinXp Pro.
Rest of the site is fine but as soon as this advert appears say bye bye to usability!!!
Please get rid of this advert until it is fixed!

22nd October 2008, 10:33 AM #2 I'm sure this add was screwing up when I was on toms hardware last night.
22nd October 2008, 10:39 AM #3 Not sure which ad it is. Can you knab a screenshot?
what browser are you using?
I have not noticed an issue with FF 3 browsing currently.
22nd October 2008, 12:15 PM #4 Same problem here. Awful when GCHQ advert is on page. The advert is animated/video. Has a globe on which unzips. I have a screenshot, but only managed to grab the last stage. Attached Images
22nd October 2008, 12:24 PM #5 Yup thats the one the big globe swooshing and wooshing around.
It's _really_ bloody annoying now as it seems to come up on 50% of threads.
On IE6 here for my sins. Attached Images
