Stumped by Jumping BlogAds Mystery

I have recently added BlogAds to my site on the first right navigation bar. I started getting ads. Now the fun began. The ad is jumping around for no apparent reason. Sometimes it is where it should be (below the Google ad block on the right), other times it goes down random lengths or it even creates a third column for itself, thereby destroying the layout. Refreshing the page normally restores sanity, but not always.

What is happening here? Any clues?

To see this load few pages and check the ad. I am pretty postive you will see the anamoly in at least one or more pages. It is definitely not my code. I tried putting it in a div, a separate td element and even added a br at the end. I simply don’t know how to stop dancing BlogAd on my site short of removing it altogether. Any help is appreciated.

Just wanted to follow-up and say I think the issue has been fixed. I haven’t seen any jumping ads in a couple weeks.

@Dave
Thanks for the confirmation.

I too use the wp-cache plugin. But if I disable the plugin the whole server will go down before I can get a cup of coffee.

I’ve seen the same problems on my site and haven’t found a way to fix it. Just wanted to let you know you aren’t alone. One thing I was thinking is it might be wp-cache, but I haven’t been bold enough to disable to plugin to find out.
