  Hey There, I just recently purchased no ads as part of the 99$ package for http://socialrand.wordpress.com/ – but I still have a giant ad trumping my categories listing. I need it removed as this is for a research project.

  I don’t see any ads at http://socialrand.wordpress.com/

  Would you please make a screenshot and upload it via Media -> Add New in your blog’s Dashboard so we can take a look? We take this very seriously.

  Here’s how to make a screenshot:

  Please note that it’s possible for ads to appear in your browser that were not placed there by WordPress.com. These ads are sometimes caused by malware or a virus, but more often it is due to a browser extension or toolbar that you may have installed in your browser.

  These sites have further explanation and suggestions for eliminating the ads:

  Hey Macmanx

  Thanks for the heads up. Wasn’t aware of all the adware I had going on. Especially the Text Enhancements.

  Cleared the cache for the past four weeks on Chrome – and looks clear now.

  Thanks
