Advert blocking text of article

Hey guys, just saw this and thought I would take a screen shot to show you.

Was looking at an article on Devshed and the Oracle advert (large square one) appeared behind a section of text making it unreadable.

In opera, when I'm reading something like an anandtech article and I zoom in 'cause the text is too small, it has problems rendering the ads and I get that a lot. It's only the square sidebar ads like that do it, though. Are those shockwave ads? They seem to be guilty more often than not.

Heh, some of the ads here are really awful sizes. That oracle one has been agrivating me for ages. Usually, when I read articles, I go straight to the printable version to avoid the adds, and to be able to read the whole thing on one page.
