So what? It's still keeping track of our surfing habits.
Faith is Hope (see Loki's sig for details)
If hindsight is 20-20, why is it so often ignored?

Nevermind fixed.

If the ads are making us money don't take them out.

They are gone, that can't be good.
After I fixed the problem in your browser, I realized I broke things in other browsers. You and Illusions just caught me fiddling with things. It's back below the navbar, because that's the only place I can find that doesn't break things for some combination of browsers and reasonable window size.
You can stamp that ad right over my avatar. I kept it clean and white for something. Now I know what.

You've made me intrigued as to whether or not vBulletin sanitized their avatar uploads and disallowed uploading or linking a PHP or Python script that would randomly select an avatar from a list of them.

You're quite welcome.

Looking good for me now.
The ads are now bigger than the margin should allow (800x600). Ugly.
The ads are 728 x 90, you can see that in the code. They aren't bigger than 800 pixels wide.

Would you wear an ad on your clothing if the advertiser paid you? What about a sticker on your forehead? A tatoo? Is there a pay threshold for all these?

People wear ads on their clothing all the time - and they usually even pay the advertiser for the privilege. That cute little Abercrombie logo on your sweats is advertising. Same with the logo for whatever sports team you like. And then we move on to the people who wear Coke and Marlboro tees.
We're stuck in a bloody snowglobe.
So how about the sticker on your forehead? Or a condom ad on your boob, though I think by the time he sees it, he'd better be prepared already.

Indeed, so it's not really a worthwhile comparison, is it?

I don't suppose you remember the scene from one of the Ramona Quimby books where a class full of kids wore chiquita banana stickers on their foreheads? It's a girly book, one of many of the children's chapter books belonging to me that my son refused to read, but my daughter really loved it and it didn't seem particularly dated. If your daughter isn't past that level in her reading and hasn't already they are pretty entertaining.

She may be. What age level? My daughter's ten and she's reading some pretty sophisticated stuff for a ten year old.

I think it would depend on her, then.

I loved Ramona books as a kid...I can't remember how old I was when I read them....
Also, Mozilla Firefox is free, 100x times better than IE other than the occasional dumbass site that doesn't support it, and you can get adblock! Then you don't have to complain about the ads anymore
Okay, so...sorry, but I'm not following what the problem is.
The ad is bigger than the margin that is supposed to contain it. (the right margin, which ends at the last page number)Okay, so...sorry, but I'm not following what the problem is.

You haven't yet realized that none of us can confirm this since the ads are targeted based on the user? Unless everyone here is being advertised coupons for local Long Island businesses, even people in Finland, Britain, or Australia...

I want to shower you with love. In the form of tiny tiny pictures on the top of this page.
