No perfectly fine for me.... the advert is just alongside the news. What screen resolution are you using?? might have something to do with it.... I'm on 1280x1024

It looks like this for me

but the site does have some issues generally with showing adverts and content in certain combinations of browsers, OS, and settings. It's a big problem for all web designers, and it's very difficult to write a website which shows the same on all browsers under all conditions.
I've had a major problem with the actual ybw home page for ages, where I have to scroll down about 5' to see all the content, with content and side bars and links scattered all over the plce, on one computer I use, and no amount of setting changing solves it. Strangely, all the magazine home pages are absolutely fine.

Mine sees it like this...

and the main home page like this...

I think increasing the screen resolution will help solve a lot of issues.

On the same computer at max resolution of 1280x1024, so changing resolution has no major effect on these particular pages


Another computer with as near identical settings as I can accomplish, using same browser and OS, show similars results to what you have posted. The ad's vary obviously, but take up the same space

Looks like you are using the large fonts option??

You can scroll through the font settings by holding down CTRL and scrolling with mouse. Layout of the site remains the same,
