Are these adds here on purpose or a virus? Looks more like one than the other.  clicked on one and my browser said its not trustworthy  it is also underlining & double underlining words and making them links. you can scroll across them to see the link. DON'T CLICK THEM!!!

Yeah, I'm not sure what's going on on this forum. It's annoying to say the least.

I would be extemely surprised is this was a hack job. Adbrite identifies them selves clearly in every pop up that appears. Do a Google search and you will see that these ads are exactly what they sell to website owners. Hackers tend not to give you their real name and address. Sites with this much traffic can produce significant income through click through campaigns. If they persist, I will either learn to avoid them or just vacate the site. The banner ads on the side are expected by now and I am not bothered by them and as long as they are relevant, They can even be of value. But the ads in the body of posts are just plain offensive. here is a review of Adbrite's service: http://www.wolf-howl.com/22/adbrite-review/

I suspect the hacker was probably just an affiliate with adbrite. If he gets the ads on a few heavily trafficked sites even for a little while, might make a pretty penny. Probably he will get his account suspended. Then he will start a new one and do it again.
I thought they had these things cleaned up last night, or maybe they don't show up on my iPad for some reason.
--------  Fish ON!

Seems like the ads are all gone.
