Just a little note Julio, I am using Opera and every page I go to says that the ad server cannot be located. Just to let you know if you changed something, and forgot to change it back. It needs to be looked into.

That sounds wierd cause I am not having any problems in Opera. Do you happen to remember the location of the ad server or what it was called?

Not off hand, but it is ok now. Must have been a momentary glitch or something. Sorry to make everyone worry.

Possibly some sort of ad server downtime. Thanks for the note though.

I for one haven't had any problems using Opera with TechSpot. It actually loads much faster than IE.

That has happened to me a few times in the past too...

And as Julio said it's the Advertisment servers being down (usually)

Yeah opera works fine with the site.
Maybe we just need to click the ads a little more often
