    My firefox comes up with the message saying google says that Xapads adverts are dangerous...

    I had just got authorised by them to use thier adverts... and now google says they are dangerous... why is that?

    I make like 12k+ raw impressions per day, would have been good money... :(

    I had problems with another ad, my sources of traffic banned me due to the malware found in those adverts... had quite a tough time fixing that problem, so I'm not going to touch these adverts til google gives the go ahead.

    Hello Guys,


    I hope most of the peoples remember me, for those who don't know me.. I am Nitin Gupta, CEO of Xaprio Solutions. Xapads is a wholly owned subsidiary of Xaprio Solutions.
    A virus hit a server of ours, while we didn't faced any data or information loss, they managed to infect few of our ads and hence google marked us as "Suspicious".
    We have got rid of the virus, fixed the server and are almost back to work.. Just waiting for google to mark our website as "Cleared".

    We have been using latest technologies and have done everything we could have to secure the network.
    The company behind the virus attack is one of our direct competitor, i never ever imagined that some persons can do such cheap tasks to be in the business. We are growing at a pace of 30% Month on Month and have swept away a lot of business of that company on the way and this was a desperate last attack of there. However, we have got all the proofs against them and will be suing them very soon.

    I apologies to every publisher (whose site has been affected) of our network coz of what happened. We will be fixing everything today and will update you once done. I request every publisher who have removed our ads to please put the ads back once i confirms you.

    Last but not the least, i would like to thank all of the publishers associated with Xapads to be a part of this family :)

    Regards,
    Nitin Gupta
    CEO
    Xaprio Solutions

    A couple of day ago I've joined in your website, but for now I'ven't received the email with the confirmation link.
    Yesterday I've sent a message at your email but nothing for now.
    I've sent you a PM too, but no reply.
    For a new publisher these are bad things, now in this thread talk about virus, spyware... I've dropped clicksor for these shits (lost my earning with them)and my website was de-indexed for their shits and I've lost a lot users for that virus.
