Sorry for the Bum Ad Inserted in Google Feeder by a Hacker

Saturday, September 5th, 2009

A reader has just brought a situation to our attention. We want to make it clear that we are not promoting “enhancement” drugs of any kind and that we did not insert this type of wording into a large advertisement that appears at the top of the last blog entry, “Little Mermaid.”

The only ads generated by us are placed there by eBay and amazon, by arrangement. How someone hacked into the Google Automatic Feed, is beyond our knowledge or control. If you do not have Google Feed, then perhaps you will not have even seen the ads. Keep in mind that you can always click directly from the front page of our website with the link that is there. The direct link is: http://quiltersmuse.com/blog/

Ours is a family website and we seek to keep it more high-toned than providing ads of the type described. We see enough of that garbage ourselves, on the evening news! So, sorry for the interruption.

Once Google catches up with the hackers, I suppose things will be right, again. Until then, please ignore the trash, and go on to the more important messages. There will always be “spoilers.” It seems to be the nature of human beings.
