Brian, I haven't changed a thing on this end, at all. If you are experiencing problems, it's somewhere between us, and you, but not on our end, as everything is working fine.
Something was wrong with either your software, your provider, or something else along those lines, but that's all I can say, because everything here is exactly as it's supposed to be. The HTML is correct, the banners work, and there's nothing that I've changed to make it work all of a sudden.
I'm sorry that I couldn't nail down your specific problem, but truthfully, without being physically present on your system and knowing exactly what your settings are, it's hard for me to trouble shoot.
For those of you using AOL 3.0, the reason that the banners may be failing is that AOL 3.0 doesn't handle Javascript well.
Also, if BladeForums.com is set to be your homepage, that may be why it's showing up on your screens: The banners as supposed to open up a new browser window (which would explain why you go to the front page) and then take you to the appropriate advertisers page.
Sorry I couldn't be of more help.
