I logged in to the site this morning and the add box on the left which normally takes up one small column is taking up nearly half the screen??

Only have this issue when using Firefox 3.5, IE8 works fine.

Site was normal last night using Firefox, anything changed Geekzone end overnight?

Just tried logging in using IE8 and it also changed to displaying the ad box covering nearly half the screen. I guess I haven't been clicking on enough ads and someone is trying to tell me something :-)

Nothing has changed on the site - we have it frozen now waiting for the new version.

I use IE8 and haven't noticed anything. Screenshot please?

Oh yes... That's Tony's comment in that box that's not being wrapped. Wait until some other of your friends do anything on the site and it should go soon...

I don't get that problem because I have thousands of "Geekzone friends" so that box changes quite fast for me - almost different lines every refresh.
