Thanks for the comment, and no… FireFox works well with in-text ads. What you describe could be the result of your local settings.
If you need more help, please drop me a word and I will connect you with some tech support.

You say “they are much less intrusive than jumping banners”. For many of us, that’s not true. With banners, at least I can scroll or otherwise position them offscreen. Random words in the middle of the text screaming for attention are far more disruptive. I personally rank in-text ads as one step above popups, one step below popunders on my list of ad types most likely to drive me away from a site.

While studying differing monetization models I came across this article and it raised some questions.
I myself am a FireFox user because I don’t want to wait for ads to appear when all I’m interested is the content. Now it could be because of the settings I have applied to my FireFox, but “in-text” links appear as normal links and no “bubble” materializes. Is this a normal experience for FireFox users?
Also is FireFox trending to take a larger share of the market?
