"Creativelive" banner that never loads

Driving me crazy! This has been an issue on and off for the past year or so, but now has become full-time. The "Creativelive" banner (whatever that is for) at the top never really loads and flicks my screen up and down endlessly. I have to X out the loading to be able to read or post. Could there possibly be a fix for this?

Mine doesn't load either - but luckily doesn't affect the entire screen; there's just a little flickering thingy in the upper right corner. Even though the banner shows an x (in front of "CreativeLive", clicking on it does nothing. I just realized that when I switch from the forum site to the portfolio site, the banner does load and the x is at the right place (upper right corner) and active. Clicking on it closes the banner - and it stays closed after switching back to the forum site.

 

For a while, I was able to suppress all the ads on the page with an adblocker - sadly that no longer works.

On an ipad, I am able to close the AD by hitting the ‘x’ at just the right moment. Sorry I can’t be more precise.

I've tried that numerous times and it never accomplished anything. Drives me buggy!

Glad to see it is not only me being bugged by that.

I don't see what you do - just the little widget in the upper right, which has no obvious effect on performance. If a couple of Tech savvy folks will start a conversation with me including details, I'll see what can be done.
