Default Issues with AmEX ad

Is anyone else having an issue with an American Express ad blocking the site from loading? All morning this ad pops up and nothing else loads. I hit the back button and the RC Tech page loads.

Sheesh these ads are annoying.

Same here. Started for me yesterday evening. At first I thought the site was down. AMEX advert page and nothing else.

This morning I hit the back button by chance and the RCTech site came up. But every time I hit a new thread or even just try and go onto next page of thread the AMEX page comes up and I have to hit the back button to get what I wanted.

Very frustrating way to navigate to say the least.

Same problem.....AmEx ad and no forum, using Windows 10 and IE. It seems to work ok using Windows Edge. But won't open past the AmEx ad with Explorer.

I'm looking into this guys.

Can you report your browser type and version, and device type?

Seems isolated to IE. When I use Firefox, Chrome, or Edge (on my Windows 10 box) I do not have any problems.

Spoke too soon. Back to not working. Earlier the AmEx ad wasn't there and it worked fine. Now the AmEx ad is back and the page won't load again. Using a new HP desktop, Windows 10, IE. Works fine with Windows Edge.

Still investigating guys.

If anyone is seeing the "page won't load" issue and is using a browser OTHER than IE, please let me know.

I don't see it anymore. If I had to guess, the ad had a broken script and didn't load the full page. Looks like that ad is out of the rotation. If it pops up again I'll let you know.
