 * My site has been up and running clean for months. I went into the site today 
   for the first time in several weeks to moderate a comment and found that all 
   of my widget advertising units are missing. Widgets are still there, as well 
   as the code, but nothing appears in on the pages. All appear to be Amazon ads,
   except the top header bar ad which is Adsense. Two widget ads do appear. One 
   is a Walmart ad, the other a custom link I put together. Everything else is missing.

 * no, site has been stable for months. No changes. I have since discovered that
   it is only when I view the site in IE8, with Firefox, everything is as it should
   be……

 * Looks fine in IE7, 8 and 9.
 * There are errors though, [http://validator.w3.org/check?verbose=1&uri=http%3a%2f%2fspinalstretchreview.com%2f](http://validator.w3.org/check?verbose=1&uri=http%3a%2f%2fspinalstretchreview.com%2f)

 * Whoa, I’ll say. Will take me a week to dig through all those…lol. Thats one handy
   dandy bit of software.
 * I find it interesting that you don’t have a problem getting the affiliate ad’s
   up in IE8. All I get is empty boxes where the ad’s use to be. I have to assume
   that I have a problem with my IE8 program all of a sudden as it works fine for
   me in Firefox.
 * I had a malware virus get by my firewall two weeks ago. Thought I had it all 
   removed. Seems to be fine at anyrate, but it possibly could be related to that.
   I’ll start digging through my registry to make sure I got it all.
 * Thank you for checking it out. I’ll work on those errors as time permits.
