SYMPTOMS
The Ad Rotator in the bottom left hand corner of the screen does not link you to the correct site.



CAUSE
This happens when you access the Internet through a broadband connection. The Ad Server uses the IP address of the proxy server, so you see the last advertisement sent through the proxy server, which is usually different.



RESOLUTION
This issue only affects those users who access the Internet through a proxy server. This is a known issue and there is no resolution at the present time.
