I just checked it and saw the ad. 9:33 PM EST. Thumbs up on the nofollow 🙂

Not only to I get the ads, like you I see some of the highest paying ads there are (LendingTree, GeekSquad, and LowerMyBills). Those are all heavy hitting advertisers who pay big bucks to be on top of Google.

Also, they’re not cloaking:

Yahoo’s cache of the page.

Hmm.

I still get the ads showing in both IE7 and Firefox.

However the YPN javascript is still in the source code, the ads aren’t being showed any longer. Propably the domain has been banned meanwhile.

Wow, that’s really strange.

Perhaps they are going for a TRULY minimalist design. Haha.

I’ve never come across anything like that before, Donna.

Seems they went ahead and banned them now as I see no ads at http://www.xtreme.com/ at all. I checked the source, the code is still there… but I get no ads showing up…

Did you report them per chance? 🙂
