Default Page Problem Access

It might be just my space station or there may be others here with the same problem. The Dremel ad banner obscures the top of the page when the cursor is passed over it (I know...it says to do that). It's difficult to avoid it.

But, when I go to use the search option, it opens the search window under the advertising, so it's not in view to use. This seems to be a recent annoyance.

Yep, I see the same thing, so it's not just your computer.

I don't know if any of you are familiar with the mozilla firefox browser, but that is what I use and with it i have an add on called adblock plus that blocks most advertisements on web pages, I didn't even know there was ever a banner ad on this site, haha. I love firefox, it's far better than IE and it and all it's add-ons are free. Check it out if you wish.

Bill, I took advice to get an ad blocker. It works great. If you have Firefox, CLICK HERE. if you use Internet Explorer, CLICK HERE. Even you can afford them...they're free.

This dropdown Dremel ad should work this way, IF YOU WANT MORE INFO, CLICK HERE. It's like having to press one to speak English. It's backwards and a PIMB.... Pain In My Behind I'm reporting this to Management! GRRRRRR bill

Guys, I'm working with Dremel to try and fix this ad. Sorry for the problems... I had no idea these were expanding ads.
