Google Ad Mishap

Well, figured I'd put up a new topic to see if anyone has the problem.

Occasionally when I visit threads, the Google Ad up top will jump down and into the thread itself.

A screenshot looks like this. It is usually fixed hitting refresh, but just wondering if this happens for other people, too? Not sure why it happens, just seems weird.

I'm using Firefox 0.8.

Just an ancient PA person who doesn't leave the house much.

    That's happened once or twice while I was using Opera.

    I'm not sure if this's fix the problem but i'd seriously advocate updating to Firefox 0.10.1; there was a nasty bug found recently that nukes your default download directory (firefox's default on installation being your Desktop in windows, not cool). Also i've never had this problem in 0.9.3 , 0.10.0 or 0.10.1 afaik but i've also got adblock installed with a good custom filter so all google adsense iframes are blocked anyway now (I know it's the way some sites get revenue to stay running but adverts everywhere piss me off, gimmie a paypal icon and i'll donate a £5, more than you'd ever get from me for ad impressions anyway).
