  Could you send us a screenshot of the page where you’re seeing this? You can upload the screenshot to your blog’s media library.

  Sorry for the inconvenience.

  I don’t want remove all ads, just want to correctly lead them to avoid unfair ads, like “you are the 100000 visitor, click to claim the prize”. Is there any way to correctly drive it?

  Those are probably not from WordPress.

  Are you seeing them while logged in?

  You may have a contaminated browser extension, add-on or toolbar. Try disabling any and all you have installed, especially unfamiliar ones.

  Allowing sergiomarreiro the opportunity to do as Staff said above will reveal the answer. There’s no need for a Volunteer thread swarming to take place and doing so creates the risk of confusing him by deflecting him away from responding to kardotim.

  I am not seeing while logged in. I have never seen any ads until someone pointed me out that ad. There was on a clean computer with no extensions, and the ad have the “about-these-ads” link in it. If i found that particular ad again, i surelly will take a snapshot and post it here. For now, it seems like some nice ads are showing at the same place. I will consider the topic closed til i find another one.
