Jeff,
This was just a simple work around I found and wanted to inform people about since SO many people expressed an interest in the HULU problem with Ad's since last Sept. (about 5 months worth of complaints so far and counting) and I haven't heard anyone express an interest in a "New Toolbar" which you seem to be working on BUT I'm sure it will be important when it rolls out even as people wait for a Hulu.com FIX?
Just trying to help everyone with what I learned,
Steve
