Why do the adds block my drop down menu?

Question

It seems like the add on the web page continually block my drop down menu. I sent an email to spanishdict.com to let them know, but it is still happening.

Answer 1

If you're using Internet Explorer, you can go to page on the tool bar and click on "text size" and try changing that. I've never had a problem with spanishdict, but on some websites I've changed the text size to avoid clashing with ads.

Well, that is unnfair

I always get one ad! grrrrrrrrrr

I run a firefox browser ad blocker add-on. Usually it has no effect, but sometimes it does. - 0074b507, JUN 19, 2010

Be patient. When you accumulate enough points you only get ads to the right of the discussions and sometimes none at all. Here is a screen capture of my current page: no ads!

Answer 4

It seems to me like only some of the ads block the drop down menus. If that happens I move forward or backward a page and then I can usually see the drop down menu. A bit frustrating but this awesome site is free so no complaints from me!

Answer 5

Clever advertisers forcing you to look at the ads.
