My blog had this annoying pop up ads this past weeks, since last month I think, and the hardest part is that I don't even know where this unwanted pop up ads coming from. Then, one of my blog affies, Julia , visited my blog and had read my past blog entry about this pop-up ads and told me she once had the same problem and suggested that I should delete "rankwidget" on my blog. For those who don't know rankwidget, rankwidget is a site that provides a code to be displayed on bloggers blog displaying the blogs Technorati, Alexa, Google PR, and Yahoo search inlinks of the blog. And yes, as I read Julia's suggestion on my cbox, I immediately deleted the rankwidget code on my Tblog html section, viewed my blog, and noticed that the annoying pop-up ads, along with the text link ads were gone. A total pain.... in the butt?! If those are affiliate ads, I would say this widget is earning off our blogs by having this ads popping into our blogs against the blog owner's will. >.< First days, and first months of the displayed rankwidget on blogs was fine, and then the day would come where all of a sudden ads would just appear on your blog and on your blog posts. These ads are Ad Clicksor ads. That's why I thought Ad Clicksor was to blame, and later laerned that my blog pop-up ads and text link ads was from the widget I inserted on my blog. So, thanks Julia ^.^ If you didn't happen to visit my blog, I would still be dealing with those totally annoying ads. But there's still this one pop up ad I'm dealing with, the pop up that scans spyware and such on my blog. Everytime I view my blog, Norton "High Risk" warning appears. On the bright side, at least I only have one unwanted pop up ad to deal with. So for those bloggers, who's having unwanted pop-ups on their blogs all of a sudden, and you have rankwidget installed in your blog, you might wanna get rid of the widget code to clean your blog's pop- ups and text link ads.
