I've been getting a LOT of these lately from Alla and it makes posting on the site almost impossible. Here's the hang URL string:

I love the new site but I think you guys need to adopt a better structure to work with your ads. It's making the site almost unuseable on a near daily basis. Some days it works fine, others it dies horribly, all to these ads. I'd go premium if I wasn't sure I'd still have the same problems.

You won't, and premium (without the ads) loads A LOT faster! I have gotten so used to seeing the speed that I just logged off to see what you see and was frankly amazed at the speed difference. The ad servers are slow... they take a lot of time to load, but without them the site is a jack rabbit!

As to the ad you linked above... when I click it I get a black screen with a vertical animated banner ad in the center of it for a Ford truck. Clicking on THAT took me to FordVehicles.com and a page for the 2008 Ford Flex. Is that what you saw? Seems to work the way it should, as far as I can tell.
