    Bad ad! Bad! Bad ad!

    While reading this thread:
    http://www.vbforums.com/showthread.php?t=626516


    I accidentally moused over "Applications Data" and an ad popped up. What ever no big deal... But then when it went away... a SECOND ad dropped down from the top! In the attached screen shots, the Kontera ad was the original one that showed up.


    The Voice Five one was the secondary ad that showed up.



    Admittedly, it could have been driven by the ads at the top or bottom... but I don't know for sure... all I do know was that it showed up as the original Kontera ad disappeared.

    We'll get these reported. This is not how these ads should be working. I'm guessing the advertisor has an embedded survey.
