In FF and Netscape (not IE or Opera), when you roll your mouse wheel when the mouse is positioned over an ad, the ad block itself moves up/down rather than the page. This happens with ad blocks, link thingos and referral buttons. Is there a known way to stop this? I know it doesn't happen on some sites.

Not a solution for your viewers, but it'll stop you being annoyed :P
