Default God Damm banners in the way of search function

I cant even search without the "Sponsor Banners" being in the way. Is it possible to move them away from the search feature?

Just refresh the page until a banner that does not obstruct the search pull down appears.

Download Firefox if not already using it. Install the Adblock Plus Add-on from firefox.com and you won't have that problem on any forum from that point on. It disables the banners from showing up and also blocks the text advertising within posts.

Millions of people are doing it. The text ads within messages are especially annoying. I can't stand them. Having banners is one thing but those popup text ads within posts are hella annoying.
