Here is an interesting problem:<\/p>\n

In IE7, some of the ads here on my site don’t show up for me. Specifically, the animated ones show up as a blank white rectangle. They work just peachy in Firefox. <\/p>\n

The odd thing is that the same ads work just fine on other sites. I use the same advertising service as the Webcomic Ctrl+Alt+Del<\/a>, and over there I can see animated ads just fine in IE7.<\/p>\n

So the problem only arises for:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Animated ads\n<\/li>\n
  2. On this site\n<\/li>\n
  3. Using IE7.\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    All other ads work fine. <\/p>\n

    This makes no sense to me. For those of you using IE, can you look at the ads in the sidebar (I’m not trolling for free clicks, I just need you to look) and tell me if you see blank white boxes showing up? Or if you see ads playing which have animations?<\/p>\n

    If this is only a problem for me, then it’s no big deal. If the problem is more widespread then I need to figure out where things are going wrong. Either way, it’s one of those oddball mysteries that bugs me. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
