 * Hello all,
 * I am a beginner user of WordPress for a static website. Today I tried to update
   the header of the site but for some reason when I preview the site 2 or 3 of 
   the pages still have the old header. Any thoughts?
 * Not sure if this is related but thought I should provide it as well…I was speaking
   with an SEO company earlier this week and they sent me a screenshot of my home
   page showing a link to Amazon books near the header, which tells me somehow someone
   got into my site??? I do not see this on my computer but apparently other individuals
   can see the ad.

 * Are you seeing this? I am not.
 * Also, be “wary of strangers offering gifts”. Have you confirmed others can see
   the ad? (besides that one noted?)
 * What you really should do is update WP. New versions have had security patches
   applied, which hacks reverse engineer to break into sites running old versions.
 * Can you share the screenshot of what others see? (check from another ip address)?

 * yeah that doesn’t sound very good
 * those Amazon Links if you can find them have affiliate tracking IDs in them ..
   It could be from your host or from a plugin or theme you installed.
 * If you have caching turned on through a plugin like supercache on your server
   you need to turn it off and or delete the cache
 * also
 * delete your browser cache and restart your browser

 * Thanks, folks. I updated my WordPress version first and it appears to be working
   now. I will follow through with checking my browser cache and plugins as well.
