AUDIO ADVERTISEMENT ISSUES

[keydet19]

Patrick, it's every time I load a page now--thought you might want to know.

Thanks for working it.

I am told that they should be taken down within 30 minutes. Our sincere apologies for this inconvenience, ProBoards does not tolerate or accept audio advertisements on our service.

Thanks for the update Patrick, for what it’s worth it has been more than a hour since any of my members have encountered an audio ad.

Is it the "Free gift card" or "Mystery gift" ad?

We identified the network that caused those to load and called up the company that manages our ads. They are working to block those. If there are any others, please take a screen shot of the ad, also if you can right click on the ad to get the image URL and link URL it would be useful for us to use to block it.

Thanks

Patrick

Hi, we are working to get this one removed. Sorry for the delay, we are waiting on a 3rd party company who manages our ads to remove it.

Patrick, I'm getting the Wal-Mart card ad every time--on this site.

I just tried a different browser and didn't get it--could there be malware involved here?

Just an FYI, my board is still getting both the "WalMart" and "Mystery Gift" ads as I write this.

I am trying to get an update on the status of the removal of these ads. Trust me, we are as annoyed as you at this ads being up.

[ostarella]

I have just noticed that both the above ads (WalMart and gift) are on my boards as well.

[VS Admin]

Please let me know if anyone experiences an audio ad at this time -- they should be disabled.

I experienced both the Wal Mart and Mystery Gift ads on my page


Unfortunately, my computer is toast, so I have to be on a public computer at a library, so I have no way to take a screen shot.
