J430 you beaut! This fix just kills the Google ads stoney-cold dead -I love it!!! They are a prize PITA, inelegant and IMO an unnecessary imposition on the enjoyment of this site. Your fix is a classic.
I can't but agree with other posters' though... it does seem less than ideal that we have to make a change to our OS locally to fix an issue imposed on us by the administrators of this site. Obviously there must be plenty of other people out there with the same issue, assuming their local systems to be at fault. The administrators here must be aware of this issue and so should either move to rectify it at server level or remove these ads forthwith.
