	That sounds like you are using Internet Explorer Almost at the top of the screen towards the left hand side does it say "File...Edit...View" etc?

	Install Adblock - there are versions for all popular browsers. It is free. End of problem. Here is the firefox version http://adblockplus.org/en/firefox and here is a similar product for IE http://adblock-ie.en.softonic.com/

	Hi I'm back called the 24 hr tech guys they told me about the 'cog'!!!!! duhhhh Anyway I am now more confused as my 'Enable XSS Filter' is already enabled, so is this why I am getting chucked out of FreeBMD occassionally as this filter is kicking in? God I wish I was more computer literate!!!! :-S

	it means the XSS filter is doing its job and preventing potential problems Andrew - good advice - you can also change all sorts of settings from there

	As I have not seen this problem on any other sites I visit such as Rootschat or Facebook, could it be someone hacking through this site if so should it be reported to the GR team?
