Default Zedo AD?! - 10-01-2010, 11:44 AM

Today when I'm viewing my own site, I saw something strange at the bottom-right corner of my page, http://cxqn.tk/wp-login.php
So I grabbed the code and got this:

http://d2.zedo.com/jsc/d2/fo.js

IT'S AN ADVERTISEMENT??!!

Those script was between
<!-- www.000webhost.com Analytics Code --> and <!-- End Of Analytics Code -->, right after 000's analytics script, and it showed a flash ad which's floating above my page.

According to 000webhost's main page, There are no hidden costs, no adverts, and no restrictive terms.
I feel so bad.
What happened?


update:I can't see that AD anymore now, perhaps it's just a mistake. But I'm sure I saw it.
I've tried to contact ZEDO Advertisement to see if they've put AD on my ISP's network. if so, I've vilified 000webhost and I genuinely apologize for that.
Thanks everyone who cared and concerned. I love 000webhost and I'm willing to see its improvement. I trust it and always believe it could get better.

You can solve your problem by reading the FAQ's.

How to disable analytic code from my site? (Note: in some case you might need to add this "php_value auto_append_file none" to your .htaccess)

Ads will appear on your site if you haven't been logging in Members Area. The advertisements will disappear when you log in as I've read somewhere before.

Edit:
I think he's talking about the ads on the bottom-right corner, not the analytics code

Well, that's not just analytical code, it's really an advertisement!
And I'd just log into members area few hours ago.

That ad is just like the most irritative kind of ad you can see on http://www.sohu.com/ ,that ad will stay in the corner whenever you scroll, so I hate it very much.

Luckily, it just appeared once or twice.

Is 000 changing their advertising rule? Or it's just a mistake?

You're right, Joshabar123

I responded very quickly without carefully read what he was saying.

Long time ago when I'm new to 000webhost, I found that there's some strange code ruining my wordpress page. I didn't care about it and soon it recovered by itself.
After a long time I found a mail in spambox, it's about whether I can add a link for 000 on my page, I'm wondering if it's because I didn't add that link so strange code appeared. So I add the link immediately.

If, I means If, you're adding ad because I didn't gave you a link, I can told you that you must missed it. it's on the bottom of every page! Stop adding ad please!

AD won't show up every time. Actually I might be too lucky to meet it.

I tried to make it appear again and failed for hours. It showed only twice.
Luckily I got that code. When I tried to use resource tracking to check that ad, it disappeared so I get nothing.
