    Hi,

    Just spotted that i’ve randomly had about 15 likes today (unusual, seeing as i dont normally have any) so i clicked on my blog and there were random ad’s on the page. I spotted them on this page but when i logged in to see if i could delete them, my account said that page hadn’t been edited and there was nothing there to delete.

    i’ve saved some screenshots and It still shows on that page when i’m not logged in or on first visit, but any ideas on how to stop it/ ged rid?

    i’ve changed my account password, etc…

    cheers

    The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

    The only way to be rid of all advertising appearing on your blog is to purchase an annually renewable No-Ads upgrade. See here >
