What?

This topic explains you how to disable the ad, which you get to see when you Alt + Tab or use windowed mode.
The topic explains how to disable the ad NOT how to remove it.

Why?

The ad is annoying;
The ad is distracting;
And some people lagg due the ad.

How?


#Note: I use a dutch version of Internet Explorer and dont know the exact words. if you cant find the word try to look for something that is almost simulair to the word i used
Its nice to know that the ad uses Flash and Internet Explorer to start the ad.
1. Start Internet explorer
2. Go to "Tools" you can find this either on the right hand side of the screen or by pressing left Alt on your keyboard(There will apear a menu)
3. Click on "Internet options"
4. Now go to the tab called "Security"
5. Click on the button "Custom Level"
6. Scroll down until you get to the scripting options
link
If you use Internet explorer frequently follow the next step otherwise go to 7b
7a. When you have arrived click on "Prompt" belonging to the item "Active scripting"This will ask you everytime when a website uses Javascript if you want to allow it or deny it
7b. When you have arrived click on "Disable" belonging to the item "Active scripting"
8. press "Ok", a window will pop up asking you if you really want to change it click "Yes"
9. Press "Ok" again to save the changes.
10. Start maple and enjoy mapling (as you can see the ad turned white and has been disabled)
Incase you already have maple running, restart it

Who?

Special thanks:

PS:I don't recommend this solution for those who use Internet Explorer as standaard browser"


goombapatrol, For correcting me on "Add" which should be "Ad"

lumchan said: "Thanks =D

Maybe you should explain up there what is actually does (disabling scripts on IE and so) cause people keep asking "does it work for firefox?" or "now youtube isn't working" and etc."


Thanks for making it sticky and correct the "Add" to "Ad" in the title

You have to restart maple for it work(Btw Maple uses Internet Explorer and i have FF3 as my default browser and i still have Javascript on at FF so if it still doesnt work i have no clue whats wrong)

You have 2 Alt-keys on yourkey board, the right alt doesnt give you the extra menu the left one does.

so the bar is still there but it's blank? or is it not showing at all? please mail!

EDIT : okay it's just blanking it. well you can get rid of it by doing alt+enter (become window mode) and move the window below the Start menue, then do alt+enter again (go back to reg mode) and the banner will be out of the screen

It just makes the banner white so since the animations of the banner aren't there you'll experience lag.
