    [Ads by Yahoo] There sure are a lot of them.

    Are these [Ads by Yahoo] really necessary to pay the bills? In the last week they have accounted for approximately half of the new posts. =^..^=
    If you'd like a serious answer to your request:
    1) demonstrate that you've read the manual
    2) demonstrate that you made some attempt to fix it.
    3) if you're going to ask about jams include the jam code.
    4) if you're going to ask about an error code include the error code.
    5) You are the person onsite. Only you can make observations.

    I dont even look at them. I go straight past them, to the posts which actually matter.
    If it pays the bills and keeps the site up and successful, then fine by me. But I agree with Lord Blackcat, too many recently!

      Do you mean the ads (Google) that show up under the posts?

        I guess things do look a lot different to you.

        Try logging in then click What's New?
        This evening out of 96 new posts there were between 30 and 40 [Ads by Yahoo!]. Something must have changed about two weeks ago. That's when it all started.

          Look here: News Feeds

          Oh those, Yikes!!! We used to (until about 10 minutest ago) get a news feed from Yahoo if there were keyword matches to any of the copier OEM names but it looks like Yahoo changed things up and started pushing ads in their RSS feeds. This isn't the first time a news feed has gone kittywampus, sorry about that!!!
