    Hi everyone, i have a problem with my websites advertising and im guessing someone here will know what it is.

    My site is FilmHammer.com

    First of all m concern is that i think my site has been hacked because an advertising box at the top right corner of all my webpages has appeared, as well as links throughout my articles and text have popped up. Im definitely sure i didn't add this to my site and i know my free hosting doesn't place adds on their as well. Im new to web creation and i may have overlooked security of my site or something. Is there any way i can remove these and stop it happening again. Also is there anyway i can find out who has done it too.

    Thanks for your time and hopefully your replies :)

    Remove this code from your website source code: (footer)

    See how that goes.. i am unsure if this code is required by the free host or not, but it would seem that this is causing your problems..

    no problems.. it looks like it calls a script to load, this could be what is causing it, the owner of the free hosting site could change this at will, i suggest you get your own hosting account that way no one can hack into your site, with hosting like that the owner could effectively steal anything from you.. Good luck

    Your web host might have backup. Ask him.

    Doesn't seem to be hacked.
    This page http://www.freewebhostingarea.com/ says
    - no ads trial
    and their terms http://www.freewebhostingarea.com/agreement.html say

    "New users get a no ads trial. After trial, each page will have some ads automatically inserted into it. You may not remove, resize so as to render invisible or unreadable, or otherwise block any of the ads that FreeWebHostingArea.com inserts onto your web pages. Ad-supported accounts where our ads are not visible will be blocked or even deleted without warning. Accounts suspended for cheating are no longer allowed for free hosting and will be reinstated only if you pay the ad-removal fee."

    Read their terms, and don't try to remove the ads.
