Here we go again Minority Report Ad...
Is it just me this time? That new advert for the Minority Report Blu-ray on the home page, stretches the full width of the screen so it's impossible to go from your tabs to the link bar (to get to the forums for instance) without crossing it and there's a delay until it actually pops up, so you think you're safe to click the link to forum but no! It's sneaked up on you and now you're staring at an HMV page, AGAIN! That's about half a dozen times that's happened already today, not very impressed...
Only once the ad has actually appeared though, I can't click on the close link because the visual pop-up seems to be somewhat behind the "logical" pop-up, so even though I think I'm clicking on the forum link the ad's click detection has got in there first.
Besides I shouldn't have to close an ad I didn't want to open in the first place, just because I can't get round the edges of it like you can with all the other ads.
Just tried to duplicate the problem in both Fox duFeu and Safari (ugh!), and I seem to get to the forums every time no probs. And that's on the painfully slow network connection we endure in the office.
But will flag up your probs to our digital people...
Um, I hadn't actually noticed that it's a rollover advert, so it can't be *that* feisty shirley?
Oh yeah definitely, I sometimes get a shadow of the ad appear just as I've attempted to click on the forum link, so there's definitely something popping up, albeit slowly (this is a pretty rubbish old laptop, the other ads tend to appear pretty quickly though, I don't know why this one takes as long as it does). I'm using Chrome at the moment incidentally.
Wow, digital people work in your office ? What happens at promotion time, do they get converted to analogue ?

No, they work in a slightly different office. And thanks for the lol - made me aware it was a joke.

All in good time, John, all in good time 
Don't fall for it, John - he promised me a bottle of champagne...
