    Annoying ad disables user interface

    Hi there,

    Lately a new ad has been added to VBForums, one that contains a large screwdriver and takes up a lot of space. I don't know if it is featured on English systems (because it is a Dutch advertisement of company Casema), but attached is a screenshot of what it looks like, including the source code of the page.

    It doesn't just block a lot of site content, it also disables the browser interface because the transparent Flash movie hovers on top of it. For example, it is impossible to click on 'New posts', 'Private messages', or 'Log out'. Needless to say, this is a very annoying ad; can something be done about it?

    Thanks.
