Yes, I updated and it fixed it.

I'm not picking, but just making a suggestion.

The idea of this hack is excellent and very much needed. However, vBulletin itself has way too many whistles in it that few people ever use. The deal is it causes unneeded bandwidth transfer and server clock time issues that slow the sites down.

For me personally, I can see no reason that I would ever use the ad revenue sharing thing. Not that it's that many bites and processes, but a few here and there would save a lot if it were removed. We run a quarter million hits per day, and a small amount makes a big difference when you add it up.

If all of that code were stripped out of it it would cut down on a lot of unnecessary things.

The Forumbit, Treadbit, and Postbit routines pretty much need to be there like they are so you have control over where in those items they appear and how.

The right side, left side, header and footer ads are basically place anywhere you like so long as you take the right and left template and edit them like the header and footer templates to do away with the 2 leveled box, centering and columns.

If it were simplified down to where you could readily go in and add controls for say 15, 20 or whatever you need of these go anywhere you place them ads I feel like it would be more useful to a lot more people.
