Thanks for taking a look. I checked it in FF3, FF3.5, and FF2 (via http://spoon.net/browsers/), Safari 4 and Chrome (although I can't seem to figure out where the "help" button is to find out the version of chrome...oh well) also IE8. It still is not showing up for me. Oh I also checked it on an iphone 3g, no overlay.
I'm on Windows XP, if that makes a difference. What OS are you using Marcelo? Also, where are you located (US, Europe, etc)?
