Minor banner ad problems...

Judas · Aug 31, 2003, 02:19 AM

That's what shows were an ad should be..

now this is happening on occasion....

but if anyone notices it as well... this is the thread

I've cleared my cache. i've deleted the history... removed all cookies...

This is probably the ad companies own server problems

right?

Actually that looks like our server. Anyone else getting this?

I am not having that problem. Everything is good here.

....erg..... it's showing up more and more ....and i keep clearing the cache and whatnot to make sure it isn't mine..

so i went to another computer..... same results on occasion.....

i'm getting different messages within the box...however, just slightly.....

Is it only in the ad banners?

No issues here as of yet..... And I live here:-P

Although i want to mention last week i received a popup AD from one of the adds on the dh home page .... only had it happened once.... but thought i would mention it...

I have my homepages set to dh.... it was after a fresh boot too so no it wasn’t from any other source ... has never happened but that once.....

That’s what’s weird.... not only do I run spare removal tools i keep very close tabs on what running via memory and being loaded via registry... i can my cookies etc out .... (I don’t like being tracked etc....)

this was from a cold boot and like I said my homepage is dh... opened my Brower ad showed up ad for same company was on dh home page... i was like woaaa popup on dh .. : Duh: but like I said it only happened once ... and do lurk here very often....

It was one of the clear ads that hover across the page until you click them ... that look like they their not in a window... but just floating.....
