    Is anyone else occasionally seeing the following message in between the spot price charts?

    If so, please post here and state what browser you are using - I'm trying to track the bug down.

    thanks

    Yeah... I'm only seeing it in Firefox as well. I think Google changed something on their side.

    Might fiddle with the Google settings... if I can work out what ad it is, I can block it. Time to break out Firebug!

    Yes a lot of the time... I thought it was the browser needing an update FF 6.0.1

    + 1 for Firefox at Home but not on Internet Explorer at Work (not that I go on silver stackers while I am at work)

    I just thought it was some 'clever' advertising campaign

    have not seen it on Firefox on Linux.

    maybe it is your flash plugin? << dumb idea now that I think of it.
