Got a feeling the answer is right in front of me but I'm not seeing it. For some reason, each block of image ads shows the text "view counter" right below the image. Any idea why? I seem to vaguely remember turning on a counter somewhere but can't for the life of me remember where or find it.

Its a cheap, quick fix,

but open up the ad.module in your text editor

using a find or search feature locate "view counter" around line 2716 if your using dreamweaver.

alt="view counter"

change to

alt=""

This worked for me without any issues

Browser & OS:
Right now I'm in Firefox 3.1 and Vista homprem x64. But the problem was occurring as well in FF 2.x and XP Pro.
The "view counter" text is not appearing in IE.

I am using this solution for now. Thanks GeoffPalin!

If you restore the 'alt ="view counter"', then change the height and width on the same line from 0 to 1, does the problem also go away?

No, it doesn't. Also, in the ver 1.6 I'm up to now the line number is 2859

I duplicated this in the 6.x-dev tree when using the ad_cache_memcache module to display advertisements. It is now fixed.

Doesn't the fix detailed above not fix the problem? In order to get the view counter to work, doesn't it have to load an invisible image? If that image is not being loaded, are views being counted?

I'm still getting "view counter" below the ads in Firefox. I've made the change from alt="view counter" to alt="" to fix it for now.

the solution alt="view counter" -> alt="" is ok for a while. But the problem is not solved.

If you load image in a browser...

"http: ... /sites/all/modules/ad/serve.php?o=image&a=891&c=memcache"

you get the message:

"Fatal error: Call to undefined function module_load_include() in /.... ..../sites/all/modules/ad_memcache/ad_cache_memcache.inc on line 320".

So, for some reazon the function module_load_include() is not visible in the context.

I'm looking the final solution, someone know how to fix it?

TKS in advance!
