Yaaay, white spaces instead, and that's just with Adblock Plus. I will miss the "i m v u" characters, but apart from that I think I'll be fine. :-D

What annoys me more is the dumb Smily Central thing, every time I hover my mouse over it, I get the annoying disruptive "hellooooooo" sound..

I still hate how I can't navigate the site while the ads are moving.

This situation is under control now, right? Can someone who's not using an ad blocker or has ads disabled b/c they're a premium user please let the rest of us know

Well I've disabled Adblock Plus now and those ads are gone. IMVU is back :-).

So yeah, good job! Will mark as solved!

Just realised I didn't quite answer the question. Yes the problem is gone now because when I navigate the site as a guest, I don't see any of the "dodgy" adverts anymore. So yeah solved!

It's back! I just got a maximized popup with sexy ladies while viewing the Web Designer area.

And I can't navigate until the ad quits playing.

Today, I navigated down, and the page jumped back to the top to display the ad again.
