  Of course you did not put them there as we are not allowed to have blogger initiated advertising on free hosted WordPress.com blogs.

  Please post screenshot http://en.support.wordpress.com/make-a-screenshot/ upload it to your Media Library, and return to this thread to provide the file name so Staff can examine it.

  WordPress.com has been running ads on our free hosted blogs since 2006. When you see ad at the end of blog posts then provided you see this small About These Ads link http://en.wordpress.com/about-these-ads/ what you are seeing is WordPress.com generated advertising. To eliminate all ads placed on the blog by WordPress.com you can purchase an annually renewable No-Ads upgrade. http://en.support.wordpress.com/no-ads/

  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. WordPress.com does not use text enhance or text link ads or pop-up ads or header ads or sidebar ads or links in comments. If you are seeing those then see here:
