I have the same problem Yabby, so don't feel all alone. I advised OLO a couple of weeks ago, that I was not getting past the banner headline.

I have found if I bring each page up as a pop up it minimises, but does not eliminate the problem.

I also have a problem with the cursor disappearing, or freezing. Both these problems occur only with OLO, & not on any of the other sites I frequent.

As they are offering web site design, I believe it is up to site administration, & to their advantage, to fix these problems, rather than expect me to change my systems.

I did up grade to the latest Internet Explorer last week, with perhaps some slight improvement.

I noticed that an OLO page only scores 12 out of 100 on the W3C mobileOK Checker. Fixing some of the problems detected may allow the web site to display on a larger range of devices. I suggest aiming for a 85% score: http://validator.w3.org/mobile/check?docAddr=http%3A%2F%2Fforum.onlineopinion.com.au%2Fthread.asp%3Fdiscussion%3D5437&async=false

I like this guys attitude HasBeen. A line has to be drawn somewhere, you cant have people complaining that it doesn't work on netscape 1.

Let's not forget too it's free to upgrade browsers and flash.

Okey dokey, I had another, this time closer look. I do actually
have IE 9 :) I also checked the Adobe Flash player and its
the latest, so their website tells me.

I'm less keen on changing browers as I have a whole host of websites
saved on this one, and I would not want to lose all them.

It seems to me that maybe it's not OLO, but the mob who run their
advertising banners, who have the problem. Sometimes the right
hand banner ad just fails to click in and so the freeze. Perhaps
Graham could inform them, that there is an issue with some browers.

Oh Yabbs you can import all your porn bookmarks in to the new browser without too much fuss. Normally they prompt you to do so when you install them.

They also compete for you to tell them they're your favorite. They yell, 'Set me as the default browser! Pick me!'

You could also use your other browser all the time, and just use a proper browser for Online Opinion
