Bug The page keeps jumping up and down

    The feed above the top of every thread is driving me nuts! I'm using Safari on a dial-up connection, and the page jumps up and down every few seconds.

    I am getting really fed up of reading every sentence two or three times, and I'm a fast reader. The cursor moves up and down four lines when I'm trying to locate it with the mouse. If English was not my first language, I imagine the struggle would be even harder.

    Put the feed in a frame to stop it jumping the text - PLEASE!

    What version of Safari are you using?

    The Safari says 5.0.3, but I know it has been updated.

    I've gone over to IE to preserve my sanity. The feed rolls over gently, as intended ... the outgoing ad falls over the page text.

    With Safari, the incoming ad appears above the older ad, then the thread moves down about three lines. The old ad goes away, and the thread moves back up. The ad is about a line wider than it is on IE - the pics display bigger.

    I've not been around here for about a month, so I don't know if it might have been happening before.

    Happened to me before but don't remember what was the browser then.

    I tested it with Safari 5.0.3 on both Windows and Mac, and it doesn't happen to me. Do you have any plugins installed? Maybe ad block software, etc?
