I've logged on with both Chrome and Firefox and can't find the sponsor's banners. Over to the right in blue is a heading "Forum Sponsors" but I can't click on it.

Are you trying to click on OGR FORUM SPONSORS ? Or the individual banners?
I have on banners at all top or on the side. I checked on my apple I pad as well nothing shows up at all.
Maybe I'll re-boot and try again. No banners appearing anywhere.
Yes, I tried to click on "OGR Forum Sponsors" as well, just in case that was the new access point. That didn't work either.
If re-booting works, I'll post.
Have you installed any ad blocking software? It will remove the banners
Chris, BINGO! Was having a major problem with my Amazon session being high-jacked so installed "Simple Adblock". Don't visit the Forum too often these days. Will have to remember to disable that extension prior to a Forum visit.
Thanks so much.
If your sessions with Amazon are being HiJacked there is something else on your machine that merely blocking ads will not take care of. My son had a similar problem on his PC a few months ago. Not sure what it was called, but one symptom was that it reset your browsers default search engine all the time. I goggles the name of the search engine and the fix was found
Chris, once again, thanks. I did install the Simple Adblock extension to IE, Chrome and Firefox; hopefully as a future preventive measure. I neglected to say that I also installed a freeware program called "Malware Bytes". I had searched on line for the Amazon culprit, called "TT Online", and there were several recommendations that Malware Bytes would find it and remove it. It did. I normally run Trend Micro Maximum Security but I was waiting for arrival of a new Trend Micro version purchased online. In a two-day window with elapsed coverage, I obviously got infected.
Happily back in business. Thanks to all who replied.
