The advertiser had been running on SteakandCheese.com (one of our other sites) for a week without a problem. I checked daily. Today the campaign switched, as scheduled, from SNC to CJ. What I still can't figure out is how it wasn't until 9PM that I could reproduce the problem. We don't take pulling an advertiser down mid-campaign lightly. I had to be sure. I only got 3 emails from fans about the problem and it took a while to get info back from them. Problem is we get emails like that (usually 2-3 a day) all the time. Seems some adware people target our URL's to launch ads. People w/ the adware installed hit any high traffic domains (such as ours) and the adware starts launching pops and more installs. SUCKS ass b/c we get the blame for it.
Regardless, I take responsiblity for this. It was my mistake letting the advertiser go with the Iframe. It only came up after the contracts were signed and the payment had been recieved and rather than cancel out of the deal I wanted to try and make it work for the customer. We got fucked by trying to make it work for the customer. I won't be bitter or stop trying to do my best for my customers. Contrary to most of today's threads, THAT is what's gotten us to where we are.
