I just now started to post a question about the ad that appears at the bottom of the last page on my Hawaii 2008 thread and noticed that someone else is having the same experience. What is spooky is that the ad is relevant to the topic! Here's what I saw:

When I did a search to find something I needed to post the above image, an ad concerning SQL searches presented itself. I was going to ask if this was the work of my ISP, KCRag (to generate much needed cash), or Opera (my browser). So which is it? It must not be my ISP as others see these ads, too.
