Something's changed because there's an animated ad banner on the Board Index page and that's new. On other pages I think the text ads have been there a while but I'm not certain.

Having said that, I refreshed the index page a few times and it cycles through different ads, some are text and some graphic.

Just noticed a new bot viewing posts 'Google Adsense'. It would appear big brother is watching us!!

I was thinking the same (and then I realised I have an adblocker installed!).

On Hugh's advice, I also have 'AdBlocker' in operation and I see at the top right of my screen, it is currently blocking Oe advert.
