    Are they YPN ads or are they Adsense ads for Yahoo products?

    Yahoo does advertise through Adwords (and Google advertises through overture).

    My AdSense ads turned into DoubleClick ads when they show images... I thought that was weird but yours must have some other explanation. Maybe you got hacked?

    If this is the site you are talking about then it has YPN not Google AdSense and hence its showing YPN ADs..no magic here.

    Who are you hosting with?

    E-mail Yahoo right away with the details so these crooks get their YPN Publisher account terminated.

    Now look in to how it was possible for someone to hack you.

    E-mail your host aswell - they may be able to trace who it was, providing it wasn't them or one of their staff.

    Do you have any trojans or viruses on your PC?

    Are you running any scripts that you don't know much about?

    You really need to know how you was hacked to secure yourself in the future.

    Best of luck with it all and don't forget to e-mail Yahoo right away.

    I just had a terrible thought actually.

    If someone wanted to get our publisher accounts terminated, all they would have to do is hack a website like this and place our publisher ID in to the code.. then when the hacked person complains.. it looks like we are to blame.

    Sigh.. the Internet really annoys me at times. There's too many ways people can fuck our businesses.

    I don't know about Yahoo but Google are quick to shoot now, ask questions later.. after you have mailed them enough times and got past their automatic response system.

    Anyway..

    AriGOLD: Did you pay anyone to install that Shockscript? You don't seem to be giving us many ideas on how you could of been hacked.

    Ya it musta been the douche bag i payed, my fault I didnt change the password after he installed everything, but I was highly recommened by him, so I still find it hard to believe it was him. He was very big projects, and has a huge reputation.

    I don't really see why anyone would go after my site though, I mean I make a few bucks a day, I can't see anyone making enough yahoo, to have there account being terminated?
