Title: What in the world?
Post by: Chris Hyde on March 18, 2008, 08:59:23 AM: It took 10 minutes to get on the forum this morning because it kept redirecting my to some ads. Now, look at the green keywords all over the site. Every time my mouse rolls over one, an add pops up. Whats up?????????

Here is an email I got from Krawler00. He must have seen it too.

"Hey, I would have responded normally to your message through the board but every time I go to the site to do it a pop up comes over the screen for a target gift card. Never seen that before. I hope the site is not fooled with. No way to close it out either."

Post by: Matt on March 18, 2008, 09:14:38 AM: I woke up and to my suprise, total dis-array! Adsense picked related ads, adbrite apparently might not. I dont know what the deal with the pop up was. I barely got in the site to remove the ad!

Post by: Chris Hyde on March 18, 2008, 10:56:19 AM: I have adblock, but it would not let me past the first big ad covering the complete home page.

Post by: jneal on March 18, 2008, 11:41:08 AM: prolly need to ad that URL to the blocked list. I dont get any pop ups and rarely any ads on websites.

Title: Re: What in the world?
Post by: Matt on March 19, 2008, 08:19:54 AM: I have to go through and reject some of these ads. Bare with me, these should be gone shortly. Sorry again for the crappy stuff. We are not hacked, just dealing with a crappy ad system.
