      Thanks for reporting this.  We think it's likely that this is a Google ad serving issue, but we're looking into it and will let you know when it's fixed.

          I forgot to mention that I had an ad from a site that was just titled Testing and the body was
          Info 1, Info 2 or something similar

      I've seen some of these myself even when using Google Chrome on my own hub and other people's. I thought it was something I was doing wrong where I clicked something I was not supposed to do (I'm not really knowledgeable about technology), but I am relieved to hear it isn't just me.

    Not getting that on my hubs when I view them through Google Chrome. I am dealing with loading HubPages pages, including the forums....very slow. And, I just cleaned out my system today from top to bottom. hmm

      IIt only seems to be that hub for some reason. And it's strange, it's not like he (the hubber) can edit the ad code.

    Okay, NOW I am having this problem. Just ran across it using Google Chrome.

    Please FIX this glitch. Thank you.

    The above picture is showing the code of the ad only in the upper ad on the hub and I have already run into it showing just above the vote up and comment section.

    Hey Staff, how about this one? Have you seen this thread or heard about this problem?

            Untrue actually Flora. There are just about 80-100 participants in the forums. Not all members use the forums. hmm This thread can be dropped down quite a distance in the forum threads and possibly missed by staff.

            Some people sometimes post once, then someone else will post in agreement or disagreement, and then it will slide down the list.

              Oh, okay. Thanks for correcting me. When I noticed my hubs doing this I looked on the forum to see if there was a thread already and there was.

                Cagsilposted 12 years agoin reply to this

                Yes you did. But, not everyone is going to want to come to the forums and will email staff directly without ever coming here. wink That's all. smile

                  melbelposted 12 years agoin reply to this

                  I bet staff gets a LOT of email. I kind of feel bad for them in that aspect, but eh, it makes for an entire job I'm sure. I feel bad for the angry emails they get. People probably say some violently mean things, especially when they're banned.

                  I know we see some pretty interesting stuff in the forums, but some of the stuff people are afraid to say in public but are open to sending to staffers must be pretty horrific.

                  Staffers must sometimes go home almost in tears even if they know messages aren't aimed at them specifically. And I bet, some things are personal... like people might go to the staff page and pick out something really mean to say about each staffer and share that in their email.

                  That said, maybe some of the funnier things that happen kind of make up for it. Funny things probably pop up in the moderation queue and whatnot.

    Well, it's not been fixed.

    I'm using Google Chrome on Windows XP and just ran into a code for an ad on another hubber's hub.

    Picture and link below.

      I wonder if it a specific ad or are specific ads in particular that when there is a problem it is it/them, or if they are *all* google ads are showing up as codes at some point? I just checked the one you linked and it is fine.

        I just took a look at one of mine to answer a comment and there it was.  It seems to come and go.  I'm not going to worry about it anymore!  We're not supposed to put links in here (I think), but it the one I wrote about a Cake in a Jar.  That was 10 minutes ago.

    Okay, this is getting tiredsome.

    The above hub which is mine(not self promotion) has an ad code in the spot in the upper right corner. See picture below.

    I went to the schoolgirlforreal hub in this thread - and didn't see anything amiss. Then again being in Europe I see different ads anyway.

    Just as I was closing that hub off, my speakers make a loud beep which made me jump.

    I then opened Cag's first hub he quoted above, and Jingle Bells started playing, funnily enough it started on the same note I had heard on SGFR's hub.

    The only ads I saw that could have been responsible were one for Alpari UK, though it maybe wasn't them because on re-opening the hubs in question that advert remained but with no sound, and a carrefour.es advert.

    I have found the advert that is playing Jingle Bells to me. How do I find its URL without clicking on it? It's an adobe flash player ad telling me in Spanish that I have won a prize of an iphone, and ipad or an imac, and congratulations and stuff, but when I right click on it there is no option to copy url?

    Just bumping this because that advert is seriously beginning to annoy me now - it's on almost every hub I open!
