Josef,

It was a 20-second glitch. I was changing the ad engine from my homegrown one to a commercial one.

I forgot to tell the computer "if the page is requested by a member, then don't display an ad." Horrified, I quickly rectified the problem.

I guess you could say that, for 20 seconds, we went back on our promise and bombarded you with ads...but it certainly wasn't intentional.
