Over the past few weeks, I have been using linked heavily foe job searches. Within the past 2 weeks I have noticed that certain features on my Profile page i.e. my "Profile Strength Meter" begins to load, only to be over-written and partially obstructed by ads in their right column. I have communicated several times with LinkedIn support and now they are telling me to go back to Firefox 22.x as they are not supported by 23.0 which is what I believe I am running.

The same issues essentially occur in IE8, which I really don't use but wanted to see if it was particular to Firefox or perhaps a LinkedIn issue. After turning off the POP-UP blocker and tapping the broken page in IE8 there has bees some improvement but not to a normal state. In Firefox the issue persists with that feature being "hidden" by ads in their right column. I want your feedback before jumping in and switching browser versions. Thank you in advance for your help!

Are those features hidden or not loaded at all?

In the former case, using Adblock may fix the problem.

Hi Bruno: When I access my Profile page I can view the profile strength meter loading in a normal fashion, then suddenly as the ads load the meter becomes transparent an unreadable. Also the AdBlock link you provided is totally in German. :)

I've included a screen shot of the page. Please note in the right column about 2/3 the way down you'll see a partially hidden "circle" This "meter" graphic is supposed to be filled in with a color and text to the right of it indicating level of completeness of my profile.

OK so now I've showed my language literacy level.... :/ I downloaded Adblock and restarted Firefox. Worked like a charm!

Thank you so much for your help! I wish I had thought to contact you earlier. It would have save a lot of headaches communicating with LinkedIn.

again, my sincere thanks! vaarwel ah Ha!
