Maybe Atsign works only with US-ASCII?

Correct. I wanted to provide more room for the official TODO list (below).

Hello
The Zip files on my article[^] have errors.
I checked my original Zip archive (with WinRar and with 7-Zip), but this one has no error.
The second Zip (the "noexe") CP's server has produced is even worst.
The problem has been discovered by one of my readers, in this discussion[^].
Does somebody else have this problem ?

We found the issue and resolved it this afternoon. I'm deploying in a few minutes then running an update script that should sort everything out.

Now 7-Zip can unpack archives on my site, but WinRAR still says there is an error and prevents unpacking.
Reference:
WinRAR 5.01 64-bits on Windows 7.

It's seem you can't...
There are two way to do so
1. Author granted you so
2. You have the privilages

Thanks, I even ... guessed that so far  . It is only unclear to me how the get the privileges, since this is obviously not obtained from the reputation points.

No - it depend on the hamsters.
For instance with the last wave of spans (about the love-baba) there was a call for more protectors to clean the forums. So hamsters choose some (I do not know how the did it, but it may be connected to some bribe of seeds...  )

It's based on the privileges you gain based on your reputation points. Sometimes also granted direct by the admins, but again based on their assessment of your contribution.

That's what I thought too, but I think they changed that.
When you look at the Privileges tab on any profile page, it appears you need special powers (Subeditor, Protector, Editor, Admin) to edit other people's articles.

That's true, but those privileges tend to be awarded to people whose points level is quite high.

I just got targeted with a very stupid ad that overlayed the menu in the upper right corner. Link to screendump here[^].

It doesn't look like that ad had the "Close me" button on it. We saw another one yesterday like that so Yuriy is going to dig in and ensure we give you all the option to banish bad ads.

Do we report them as spam or abusive 
Joke aside, I don't mind ads as they pay for the service, that's why I don't use an adblocker.
But when they get intrusive on the sites functionality I'm getting a bit cross. And in my personal opinion, any ad that needs to be closed to regain normal functionality on the site, is intrusive.

You and I both.
It looks like it's a simple z-index issue (I'm hearing more about ads pushing the limits of z-index values) so I've set our menu's z-index into the billyions.

Improving Ad Exchange ad detection is on my to do list!

Didn't work, I guess you need to go from billyons to zillyons.
To be in the IT business and being targeted by Comhem is also a little bit insulting. They're making Comcast look like the good guys.

Which browser? Can you try Ctrl+F5 to force a refresh of the CSS?
Those ads are random and from a third party provider (hence our desire to give you guys the chance to nuke them) so it's almost impossible for me to dig into an individual ad. It may no longer be running, or it may be geo-restricted to a certain country or it just may like guys whos name starts with "J".
If you're incredibly keen and/or bored, or maybe have a pressing deadline at work you're looking to avoid, I'd be interested in what the z-index of the ad (or iFrame containing the ad) actually is. Only if you're bored.
cheers

IE11, I haven't had that ad in Chrome yet, and I believe for sure that they are geo-restricted as it is a Swedish cable company.
