  I purchased, I thought, a premium package, so why are ads still showing up on my fourwindowspress.com site? The one this morning is particularly obnoxious, highlighting words that advertise a job placement company. I’m retired!

  I do not see any ads on your site, and ads of the nature you describe are not permitted in our advertiser’s network.

  If you do see the ad again, please take a screenshot and upload it via Media -> Add New in your blog’s Dashboard so we can take a look.

  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:
