Problem searching when ETS side ad pops up

I'm using my laptop to surf the forums and everytime the ETS ad pops up on the rightside, and I go to search, my search box ends up behind the ad. I can't click "go" to continue my search. This only happens when the ETS add is up on the righthand side. I take it they paid extra so I have to click on their site . I'm not sure if anyone else has this problem, but I figured I would say something about.

paid extra so their ad blocks the search box? you sound like pure playaer. ip check? I hope you were kidding man...

Firefox is not compatible with some website formatting. I have occasional errors such as this and it's one of the reasons I still have a shortcut to IE in my start menu.

I just cycled through all the ads on my work box (WinXP SP2, Firefox 2.0.0.6) and encountered no problems. It's hard for us to diagnose a problem without knowing his configuration.

I'm just clicking on windows explorer and have evom as my home page. Some of it might be that my screen is only 15" on my laptop When I'm on evom at work I don't encounter this problem since I'm on a 17" screen.

Yes I was kidding, and no I'm not pureplayer.

What resolution?

Edit - wait a second... Windows Explorer? Or Internet Explorer?

Edit 2 - nevermind, doesn't matter, they're the same.
