Thinking back, the problem almost came around the time the banner at the top of the site was changed.

I have observed this problem on two browsers. One was Firefox under Linux. The second is Internet Explorer version 7.0.5730.13. In both cases, the SuperChips ad is all that appears on the left side of the page. Please tell them this is not a good advertisement for their product!

I'm still having issues with the site loading too. This is not limited to a computer problem, internet problem, or even a device problem.

So far I have run into the same problem on two computers, 3 different network connections, 3 different operating systems, as well as having identical problems with pages loading on my iPhone. The ads load, but the threads remain a blank page unless I refresh (sometimes requiring several attempts to refresh).

With this being such a common problem, it's apparently a server/forum issue.

Yes, every time the page fails to load completely and needs to be refreshed the Superchips ad is the one on the side of the page. There must be a coding error with that ad that hangs the page, may be missing the code that tells the server it is done loading and to continue with the rest of the page?

The Super Chips animated gif advertisement locks me up and freezes the site every time it tries to load on the left of the screen. I have to leave the forums and come back in. While it's getting really annoying and frustrating, it seems to be the only problem I have having here.

Too bad the webmaster can't fix it. This is becoming one of the websites I don't visit unless I need something urgent. But each page is slow and the Superchips is slower.
