    Hi,

    I understand the need for advertisements and attention getting graphics. However, I would recommend not having animated advertisements and animated graphics, like the animated exclamation mark in the upper right hand corner, because they are visually distracting and consequently annoying.

    Regards,
    Bill

    Internet Explorer > Tools > Internet Options > Advanced - Multimedia and uncheck 'Show animations ....' should work.

    Where would I find this in Firefox? No multimedia that I can find.

    Thank you.

    Best ask in the Firefox forum - I use Firefox only occasionally.

    I doubt it'll help, since the ad running in the top right corner is not a graphic...

    ;) I didn't see an animated graphic up there, either, but would like to shut it off when I play some online games. Those stupid animated ads surrounding the game board drive me nuts! Will check out the forum. Thanks.
