    Maybe it is just my browser but what are the white boxes about?

    Now that's a meaningful ad!

    Maybe it's subliminal - do you feel different after seeing that?

    Maybe it's an ad for cloud tech? Dunno... hadn't seen it.

    * I also don't respond to friend requests. Save a few bits and don't bother. I'll just end up rejecting anyways.*

    Looks like a cut off piece of Space Invaders, to me. Perhaps you are being invaded?

    I think this is the ad... that's all there is to it... clicking it doesn't do anything. On some parts of the ad, the cursor changes to a text caret... although there doesn't appear to be anything to type into ... and again, clicking doesn't do anything.

    Very weird.

    When I saw them earlier they were certainly box-like - not so cloud-perfect.

    Re: What are the white boxes?

    Here is the code for that section. Seems it is related to "clouds" considering the name of the class is "dvbs_cloud"

    Code:
    <div class="dvbs_container" style="width: 728px; height: 90px;">
    	<script type="text/javascript">clouds();</script><div style="position: relative; top: -80px; left: -10px;"><script type="text/javascript">cloud();</script><div class="dvbs_cloud" style="font-size:300px; width: 300px; height: 300px; position: absolute; top: 34px; left: 28px;">.</div><div class="dvbs_cloud" style="font-size:300px; width: 300px; height: 300px; position: absolute; top: 46px; left: 10px;">.</div><div class="dvbs_cloud" style="font-size:300px;
