Hmm, Lycos.

I trust you are aware that it is against the T&Cs of using the Lycos Tripod webspace to use code that breaks out of their advertising frameset and that they can terminate your account if they find you out?

Just so you know :)

Basically means your site could go bye bye if Lycos find out what you're doing by force removing their advertising banner.

You're not but your pages (or rather, something in that forum script) is forcing a reload. However it may not be intentional as I've just seen it instantly disappear without reloading.

As it stands, I shouldn't worry. But if it does just suddenly disappear one day - now you know why :)
