How do you stop 'Download' ads from showing?

    I've been blocking these ads for weeks now and they keep popping up.
    The spammy looking "Download" button ads.

    I don't know what else to do. I'd rather dump adsense alltogether than to have these ads showing on my site.

    I can't be the first to complain about them. They are a menace.

    Does anyone know how to prevent them from showing up on your website?
    Blocking URL's only stops them for a day and then they're back with different URL's.
    Reviewing and blocking them does nothing.
    24 hold, does nothing. They keep coming.
    It seems like the more you block them, the more they display.

    Any help is appreciated.

    Never mind.

    Now I remember why I haven't used adsense in so long. Crap ads.

    Yes, I'm definitely talking about my own website which was using Adsense for monetization. I've had an adsense account for years, and made money off and on with it.

    However I finally got fed up with it and removed adsense. I've been trying for over a month to block these ads and no matter what category I block, what adsense account I block, and what URLs I block, it seems they are creating new adwords accounts faster than I can keep up.

    I just can't spend everyday monitoring my site for spammy download ads. I run an entertainment and music website. And I don't want my readers seeing that crap when they come to the site.

    I've had adsense on sites in the past, but it's never been this bad. Time for me to move on to another ad program.

    Do you think it is a right place for promoting your own profile? it is a forum where people help each other, if you want some projects you should go for related sites not here, hope you can understand :)
