I do not care for that either...I do not know if it is standard with the new VB3 software or if it can be changed.

I have learned to put my mouse cursor in the far right of the screen while using the wheel mouse.

It's a java applet. Some advertisers started using it as a way to get their ads in your face, very annoying indeed.

You could disable java but that would make surfing a hassle. myself I'd reccomend using Mozilla Firefox as it blocks ads such as those.

I use Opera at work...and have started to use FireFox at home.

They are very similar in many ways.

On BOTH I allow the cookies for this site and also have it set up so it does not block adds/pop ups on this site.

Everywhere else I let the pop up blocker do it's magic.
