The last time I complained(my old thread may still be around) some things were changed, and the site got better.

I have zero issues like this anywhere else.

There really isn't any funny business type stuff going on with either site. What has happened is that advertisers have switched more heavily to using Google Adsense... have you ever noticed that ad's you see on web pages often seem to be about products that your interested in buying / and/or have recently looked up. Google adsense and programs like it basically keep caches of that information to send to advert's on webpages as you pull them up... what it means is that advertisers love it because they are getting to show you and AD of a product that you might actually be interested in.... vs their generic everyday ad.

Internet explore does not play well with google adsense or any of the other versions of that out there. internet explorer is just a completely outdated, unoptimized terrible piece of software... to give you an idea most other browser's have a weekly if not even quicker update schedule.. IE runs its updates quarterly........

unfortunately IE is the "standard" in the industry and as such... and since it still actually works (well somewhat) it's often all companies put on their work PC's.
