MS Loading Front Page Problem

[Bonziblueboy]

Hey~

Everytime I open the MS home page, it most of the time fails to load and instead i get the navigation bar on the left hand side of the screen:

It usually takes me 20 refreshes for the releases to appear.

This happens on both IE 7 and Mozilla Fire Fox for me.

Thanks~

I'm having the same problem. Sometimes its just the background and whatever ad was due on the page.
Its happening with Firefox and Opera

Now that you mention it, I tend to be looking at that ad when it happens

Just to confirm it's the bee advert causing problems.

Replicated on Safari and Firefox 3
If the add can be filtered/removed then the site works well. Might even see a decrease in page reloads which should help on the old bandwidth.
