For a few days now there has been a white band at the bottom of my PC with a X in it.
When I click on the X the band disappears but then comes back.
It covers the bottom part of the screen, any idea how I can get rid of it for good please?

Is this just on AB because I've had that all morning , just on AB, so far today.
Question Author
Yes APG, I should have said, only on here.
This is the second day it's been like this.
Don't think it is anything to do with AB.No white band here.

Danny are you using a PC?
Is it the Average White Band?
Barsel. a laptop.
Question Author
This band is on the monitor of my PC.
Danny it must be AB -I'm on and off different sites at the moment and the white band was just on AB up until about 10 minutes ago. I presumed it was an advert, clicking the X removed it, but it returned on every page refresh. ( AB only)
APG. OK.
Question Author
Lol Dave.
I have the same, only on AB. The band is not completely opaque though, so I've just been 'living with it'. :-)
Are you using an ad-blocker, Barsel?
Question Author
Not for this site Danny.
Probably a bad advert that isn't showing properly
Barry yes :-)

Just realised its dormant at the bottom of the page -can just see around 1/4 inch, but when I refresh it pops back up to a near opaque band around 1 inch with a grey x in the right-hand corner.
oh and before it pops up there is a small message on the bottom LHS of the screen which says 'establishing a secure connection' then the opaque banner pops up.
Getting this on my IPad today
my captive computer whizz kid has just told me its powerad advertising.
Question Author
APG what does that mean?
Can you let me know if you manage to get rid of it please?
Barsel, Its still there I'm afraid. When I pause the thing that you are not supposed to use, the banner turns into a video advertising life insurance. There will be nothing to be done until the advert runs its course I'm afraid. Source: Captive Computer Science Student working from home :-)
