Why am I seeing "VIEW PRIVATE MESSAGE' or "VIEW URGENT MESSAGE" at the very top of the page next to the Tractorbynet logo?
I click there and it wants me to download a "message tool". What is up with that?

Also......I find frequently that the thread page counter on the top right does not let me switch pages. I have to enter the page number and click go rather than click the page number.

Another thing......
What is this free game advertisement with all the partially clad, large breasted, animated women in swim suits. I never, ever play games yet I'm seeing it everywhere.

For the third problem, a pop-up blocker might help. No pun intended.

You could put some lenses in those eyeglasses you have on.:D

I've seen the private message ad - or at least that's what I think it is, an advertisement being represented in a very sneaky way. I wouldn't take a chance by clicking it.

Put blinders on those glasses, so that you don't see that free game advertisement on the side panel. :laughing:

Spam ads that shouldn't be on there. If you can take a screenshot of those ads and post it here, it can be brought to the attention of Muhammad (the site owner) so that he can remove it.

I saw that last week. Pretty clever attempt to get folks to click on it. Grrr.

Yeah, I've seen that "Private Message" thing but haven't clicked on it, since it was obviously not a TBN PM.

It is part of the GoogleAds Service that is in the header of TBN. it is unfortunately the price required of TBN to participate in their service.

Forgot to add that you can click the little X to the far right in that ad box and mute those ads.. It will return a google message saying ok we will try to show you more relevant ads.. or something to that effect. I have clicked it a billion times but it still shows me ads :)
