Features include global settings, advertisements allowing template conditionals, ad sharing and ad revenue sharing, timed advertisements, preset popular ad locations and functions such as sponsors, additional custom ad locations, random and static advertisements and its all very easy to use. You can use it for ordinary ads like adsense, banner rotations, or any content at all as well as using it to manage ads outside your forum too.
If you are using autoinsertion and were using vB Ad Management before version 4.00, you will need to remove your old template edits or advertisements will appear multiple times. Just reverse the old instructions below.

What makes you think there will be a version 5 of this mod? The developer has not been online sinde december 2007 so I doubt there will an official update from him for this mod.

Unable to install this! No instructions found in the zip file!
The link in the first post is not working.. Any ideas?
I was right there with you yesterday! I have installed this several times in the past and always just refered back here for instructions (I have a horrible memory). Well of course I come here and couldn't find it. It took me a while, but I got it worked out. So here you go:
1. Upload all of the files that are in the "uploads" folder. Be sure to maintain the folder heirarchy.
2. Go to your vB admincp, then "Plugins & Products" in the left hand menu, select "Manage Products". You will see an "Add/Import Product" link, click it.
3. Use the "Browse" button to locate the file called "vb_ad_management.xml". It is in the "vb_ad_management_402" folder. Check "Allow Overwrite" to "Yes". Then click "Import". The system will then import the product and let you know when it's done.
4. Once that is done. Do step #3 again except you will import a different file. It is called "vb_ad_management_english.xml" and is in the "languages" folder.
5. If you refresh your admincp, you should now see a new menu option on the left hand side called "vB Ad Management". That is where you will set everything up. It's pretty straight forward from that point on.
