Header banner intrusion into page

I've never had issues with the scrolling menu bar, I use an iPhone, an Ipad and an iMac and it not intrusive on any platform.

I guess it's a matter of opinion but it doesn't bother me

IFlash is so widely used it seems most peculiar that the muppets at Adobe don't do something about it! I also found out that something called Silverlight is also required.

Spot on - how can a company which produce such powerful software such as Photoshop and InDesign fail to solve the problems with a simple add-on such as Flash time and time again.

The gurus tell you repeatedly not to use it because of its security issues, but a very large number of web sites insist on its use to function. I get tired of the number of times a day I have to click on 'Allow Flash' but with many sites it's grossly overused/. E.g. with ZDnet , the page loads in a few seconds, but I can't read the user's comments until I click 'Allow Flash' The page then goes into hyperspace for about a minute loading numerous junk ads - none of which I want.

I first came across Silverlight a few years ago, being forced to install it for something I felt was of interest. It added loads of junk onto my 'C' partition and still didn't work properly. . Supposedly Microsoft's answer to Flash I ditched it - forever

Graham, Peter,

Stay on topic please, I'm trying to gauge people's views on the menu bar.

Hi all, I've finally come to the conclusion that as the live menu bar is an irritant to some we'll get it locked down.

It will be sorted in the week.

Thanks for listening to, and acting on, the feedback on this issue.

I appreciate, from experience, that upgrades and re-designs of forums/websites will always have the "Marmite factor" involved - sometimes it's a small detail that causes the most 'controversy'.

Never a truer word said!

The change has now been implemented.

You may need to reload your browser or clear your cache, but the moving menu bar is now gone.

Thanks for your efforts and patience with this one Dietmar , it is much appreciated .
Thank you
