Whats going on with the site, Cloud scout advertising

This is where our community discusses almost anything! While we're mainly a Cambodia expat discussion forum and talk about expat life here, we debate about almost everything. Even if you're a tourist passing through Southeast Asia and want to connect with expatriates living and working in Cambodia, this is the first section of our site that you should check out. Our members start their own discussions or post links to other blogs and/or news articles they find interesting and want to chat about. So join in the fun and start new topics, or feel free to comment on anything our community members have already started! We also have some Khmer members here as well, but English is the main language used on CEO. You're welcome to have a look around, and if you decide you want to participate, you can become a part our international expat community by signing up for a free account.

Whats going on with the site?
It's gone back to the old theme with advertising galore!
Just clicking on a thread is going to another page with guess what advertising.
Pop up to the side of the screen with advertising :(

I think OD reset the old theme.

I'm not getting any adverts when I click on a thread, nor any sidebar adverts.

I'm using Firefox and Chrome, Windows 7

It's actually better than before for me.

Yeah, all that advertising (aside from the one banner at the top on the old theme) is something from your browser hijack... not the site.

sounds like you have a nasty infection going on.

As for the theme, ppl can still switch back (again) to the new theme if they choose in their profile settings.

What Vlad said. I am on the old theme - no ads here - except top page.

OD, will try the new one to see - again - but the old is fine also.
