Removed all Auctionads

    As much as I enjoy my sites being slow to load because of Auctionads 404's and the abysmal financial performance, I've removed the ads.

    I feel bad for the guy that purchased Auctionads unless he can turn things around BIG time FAST.

    The real question to ask is how it was paid for?

    Same here. I have removed 90% of the ads already. The links will take a bit longer. The lack of news from MW and Shoe's tantrum are not good signs.

    Why is auctionads so slow? I was about to create a thread asking just that.
    It's so annoying, as I have had quite good results from them, and earnt a fair bit. But I really am not prepared to allow my sites to take up to 20 to load, just to load up the auctionads.
    A real let down if you ask me.
