Weird, very Weird!! - Goooooogle-mainokset

    I'm building a new site.

    On the adsense ads, instead of saying "Ads by Google", it's saying "Goooooogle-mainokset".

    As far as I can figure out this is Finnish.

    The content of the ads is all in English and is on-topic.

    Has anyone seen anything like this before? Any idea why it happens?

    Thanks.

    Are you hosted on the same IP range as a site with Finnish content?

    It could be a shared hosting issue I've witnessed it before. It will clear up if your site is new.

    Thanks for that suggestion.

    One of the first things I did when I found this issue was to run an IP check using MSN to see if there were Finnish sites in the same IP range/on the same server. But there weren't.

    Another site I have on the same IP that runs Adsense is showing up normally with "Ads By Google".

    This isn't exactly the first website I've built;) , but I've never seen anything like this before.
