This ad for "Parallels Desktop 6 for Mac":

Needs to be reigned in. There is something in it that will not allow the site's menu-bar drop downs to display properly. It insists on being the top display layer and blocks access to the menu items. I have been forced to use content blocking on it so that I can get to the menus.
I am using Opera 10.62 on Windows XP Pro SP3 if it makes any difference.
Jump to PostExact same behavior for me as you got in your first post. It has NOT fixed itself for me. I've seen it a lot with several ads.
Jump to PostWe will look into it, thanks for the heads up guys.
Jump to PostI was able to contact the advertiser and we are temporarily just showing the image ad until they can fix the Flash one.
It seems the version of the ad I've reported is a flash file. Since then I'm starting to see a couple different GIF versions of it that don't appear to exhibit this behavior. Will continue to monitor the situation.

A new flash ad has gone up which should have fixed the problem.
Thanks, I'll reset my blocker and cache and let you know.
EDIT:
The flash version of the ad appeared a minute ago. It was okay that time.
Cool. Just marked this thread as solved.
I know we're having a lot of problems with the ads as of yesterday. Working to resolve.
Ok, I wasn't aware. It's the first I've noticed it. I'll re-solve it then...
