Default Strange issue

This started about 2-3 days ago, but when visiting the site all the vendor ads on the left side of the page show up at the top of each page, also in the first post of each topic on the right, and below each post. I hope that makes sense to someone as it is making pages incredibly long. Basically, all the vendor ads show up in all locations where there is normally just a banner ad. I already tried the delete cookies, refresh, etc in both Safari and Firefox, still the same in each browser. If someone needs a screenshot of this let me know via email as I'm deployed to the sandbox and have no image storage setup.

That does sound very odd. No other reports of this. Try IE and see if you get the same results. Have you added any add-ons to Firefox? Can you determine if you added any new software right before this started happening?

It would be nice for you to be able to send a pic. I will PM you with e-mail address.
