Annoying hidden links
Firefox isn't an option on the computers here at work. 
For what it's worth, when I went home for lunch and used Firefox I didn't see anything in the area under discussion. ('Course, that might have something to do with directing googlesyndication.com to 127.0.0.1 in my hosts file?) Strangely enough, that's the same behavior I'm getting on IE6. Nothing displayed, nothing clickable. Weird.
ps - sorry for the duplicate thread, didn't see the original one.

The invisible ads are quite easy to find. Just move the mouse over the suspected area, if the mouse pointer/cursor turns to a "hand", there is a hidden link there. And with IE, the link info will show on the bottom left of the window. Right now, I am seeing 4 hidden links:
pagead2.googlesyndication.com/...
www.carsdirect.com
www.FreeCarPricing.com
Honda.Cars.AlltheBrands.com
pagead2.googlesyndication.com/...
www.carsdirect.com

I haven't figured out what the issue is yet but I'm working on it today. Hopefully I can get it resolved.
Pay yourself Double Time for working on a Sunday Holiday.
I wasn't able to find anything specific so I just recopied the ad code. Maybe it was something to do with that but I can't say I actually changed anything. If you still run into this problem let me know and I'll take another stab at it.
