(I hope Dioxide won't kill me for this.)

I myself hate banners, never click on them,
consider them as a waste of bandwith and a very
stupid form of advertising :)
So, I don't want to see them or if I see them,
the last thing I want is to see them reload.
The best solution is to see only one frame in
the browser window (right click on the forum
frame and chose view frame in window or whatever
you have in your browser). But there's a problem.
It works for me since I am VIP (see below why).
Dioxide put a bad javascript on the main forum
so if you chose to view only this frame, it reverts
you back to 3 frames page (but forgot to put the
same script on the yellow VIP forum - I hope he
won't consider it as a reminder to put it there).
The only solution with this is to turn javascript
off in your browser or to use a browser that doesn't
support it. Turning javascript off is annoying since
it's a useful thing and you need it on another
sites. Browsers that don't support javascript in
unix are lynx and kfm (dunno about windows).
