Hey David, How are you doing?

I just now logged on and can see the ads on the top loud and clear; they're all there.

Maybe it is just you... unless more users say the same thing. or maybe it was a temporary thing. Are you still not able to see the ads? If yes, what do you see? Do you get to see "the12volt.com" logo on the left? Do you see a blank white box instead of the ad?

Mark

Also I just tried to click the "www" link on your post, but it does not take us to your site. It takes us to

the12volt.com/installbay/www.12voltsecurity.com Which says that this page does not exist.

You may have to check and update the link to your site without the extra "://www.the12volt.com/installbay/" in front of the link and after the "https://".

David, if you have an ad blocking program running, the banners at the top and bottom of the page will not show.

David, are you able to see other images but just not the ads? The ads on the top of this site are nothing but animated gifs. Basicallys just a gif file (with a hotlink to the advertiser's site)that "animates" when you open it in most browsers. On our forum, it looks like the ads (gifs)open up either randomly or in a sequential way.

Honestly, I wouldnt complain. I think you are lucky! Tell me how you did it (if it is at all possible) because I would like to do it too. The internet is filled with ads and I have sofware to block my popups but not to block same level ads.
