    Click Thrus Not Working?

    Hey Jim -- I'm trying to do my part for b-b.com by doing my daily clicking, and today any ad I choose I get an error page at burstnet.com -- in fact none of the links on their own error page are working! (Like you can choose FAQ, but all the pages at burstmedia.com are "not found.") Weird, huh? Tell them they owe you for at least three click-thrus from me!

    ctan,

    Thank you for your help!! It is certainly very needed right now, due to the sluggish economy and all .

    Do you happen to remember which ads they were? Or at least which advertiser they were for? What time of day was it? I know they do maintenance on the ad server at about 4 AM ET, so if you hit it around then, that may have something to do with it. They also just upgraded their backbone connection, so you may have hit it during the transition.

    Are you still having the problem?

    Anyhow, thanks again for your help!

    Hi Jim! It was yesterday right before the time when I posted my message here, which was midafternoon? I tried to click on an ad for a posters and prints store/site first, and there was also something sports-related but now I can't recall what -- not gameballs of Moosehats, it was definitely the banner ad, not a "premium partner."

    Hmmm, perhaps unrelated? -- I just tried to do a click thru to PowWeb and got the following error page:

    Warning: Supplied argument is not a valid MySQL result resource in /usr/local/powweb/apache/htdocs/powweb/tracker/in.php on line 14

    Warning: Cannot add header information - headers already sent by (output started at /usr/local/powweb/apache/htdocs/powweb/tracker/in.php:14) in

    Hmm, now I just tried another one, for Ancestry.com,the banner that syas Type Your Name here. Every time I click on it, the following URL shows up in the Netscape Location window: http://www.burstnet.com/ads/ad8965a-map.cgi/2935?259,40 but it doesn't actually take me anywhere. I clicked on it several times and I stayed at b-b.com. I think that's more likely a problem at Ancestry.com?

    When I tried the one for AT&T Wireless it went through just fine.

    Cecila:
    Maybe it is a Netscape thing. I use IE, and have not had any problems recently. Thanks for clicking
