Hacking and cracking site. Say what?

    Hi all!

    I'm running a campaign for some tech product.
    It ran nicely for a week, having great conversions.... Until today.

    About 80% of my ads were marked as "disapproved" for this campaign.
    Reason stated by google (on awdords gui): Unacceptable content.
    When clicking on the "Unacceptable content" link, I got to this page https://adwords.google.com/support/bin/static.py?page=guidelines.cs&hl=en_US&answer=47221


    Apparently, I promote a hacking and cracking site :)

    What shall I do???

    Some issues to consider:

    1. There're many players in this niche, and their ads are running. How's that?
    2. If I just change the ads, without touching the landing page, will they run again (and do I put a ban threat on my account)?
    3. If I create a landing page (currently I have the offer on an iframe) might it help?


    Thanks!

    We can't really help unless you give us your landing page address and some examples of your ads.

    The only thing I can advice right now is that you contact Google

    Wouldn't want to expose the domain.
    It's basically an offer inside an iframe on my domain. The product is in the "gray" area according to google.
    But other marketers do market it (their ads appear).
