Two in quick succession in the last hour or so. First was from those JB HI-FI 
people  who did the first one I reported. Second today is still there just 
under the main menu on 
http://genealogy.wikia.com/wiki/Image:ScotlandCountiesNumbered.png#Beskrivning
It's a superficially anonymous invitation to do a survey "so we can help you 
find ... the road less traveled". Clearly not originating from New Zealand. The 
link is to http://ad.doubleclick.net/click;h=v8/3784/0/0/... (filling the bar 
and probably going beyond). Below the bottom of the proper sidebar items is a 
blank white panel that looks as if the ad was planning to go there too.
There's a banner ad (from the JB HI-FI people) in the usual place.

Today's first one is still visible too, on 
http://genealogy.wikia.com/wiki/Image:ScotlandTradNumbered.png
The now familiar JB HI-FI, also looking as if it wants to repeat in a white 
pane further down.
With a normal banner ad from some anonymous hate-letter collector in the usual 
position.

  Good morning,

  Odd - were you logged in at the time you saw it, did it show more than once, 
and on any specific pages?

  Thanks!

    Today a rather long ad for
    
http://www.jbhifi.co.nz/dvd-movies-tv-shows/sale/?gclid=CNChh534h5cCFQRkswodjXUC9w
    has appeared on my sidebar straight under the main
    menu; on one view it appeared also below the other
    panels. I was unable to drag any panels above it.
    I know that New Zealanders are among the world's
    best in the field of new technology, but this is
    BAD.
