So a couple days ago I started having a lovely 3x3" ad float about my screen. There is no way to minimize it. It will move when I get near it with the cursor thingy, but it doesn't always get out of the way. Just posted about it on another forum and had to wait like 30 seconds for the ad to move so I could reply to a post. Not OKAY OH!!

What is the deal???

Thanks,

Denise

At the very bottom right corner of your screen there should be a little blue arrow. Try clicking on it and see if that gets rid of it.

I set my OH screen so that none of those adverts (and the chat) do not show up. Sorry friends but once you get to the 1,000+ friends mark it's impossible to be on here with chat on and accomplish anything without igging people. And I love you too much to ig you!

Yes, very annoying, and yes, as Kelly mentioned, just click on the little blue arrow at the far right bottom corner of your screen. That kills the sucker! (at least temporarily)
