I get all kinds of things wrong with this site. ALL of it due to the ads. I get screen lockup, where the screen nly displays up to a certain portion and then I have to refresh the screen to get the thread to show up, usually have to wait long enough for the next ad to cycle in at the top.

I have gotten falsh flash download ads, I have gotten ransomware ads like has been shown on this thread the last few days, I get viruses in the ads themselves.

We run a very deep set of virus checking and web site filtering software and this site is one of the worst (right after FORBES) in terms of sending out ads with malware. I tolerate it because the information content is high, but it would be nice if the web masters would spend a lot more time and money on prechecking these ads prior to sending them to us all and having the (877) ransomware banner pop up.
