    I am a new Co-op user, I have a few question regarding the account tracking as below:

    1) When I first log on to my account(under the setup instruction), I was ask to creat a file "ad_network_254.php" in my main directory site. Today I went to the setup instruction page again and I notice the the file name has change from "ad_network_254.php" to "ad_network_292.php". Can someone explain to me why the file name change from "254" to "292"?

    2) If both file created in my main diretory has a "254" name (ad_network_254.php and ad_network_ads_254.txt) but the code insert to my web page has as "292" file name as below:

    <?php
    ini_set ("include_path", ini_get ("include_path") . ':../:../../:../../../:../../../../');
    include ('ad_network_292.php');
    echo $ad_network;
    ?>

    How will this affect my weight and the link place to my site?

    If it will not affect my perofrmance why my total ad impression(show in stat) drop from 26k to 12k while my weight goes up from 22k to 25k? Also, if I delete an ad will my total ad impression drop, if yes will they increase back to normal later?

    Probably because it's a weekend, and less people are using the Internet on weekend (less impressions). Your total ad impressions will not be affected if you ad or delete ads. The total impressions will be just spread accordingly between your live ads.

    Thank Shawn, another question, how is the weight related to my ad impression? Is 1k of weight means 1k impression?

    Weight and impressions are not directly related. Weight is simply an arbitrary number used to calculate the percentage system impressions you get (relative to the total network weight).
