Link to report bad advertisements?

I recently saw an ad for "DriveCleaner" that informed me through a pop up that my marriage and career are in danger because of certain files on my computer I may not have deleted completely. It then proceeded to ask if I wanted to register for DriveCleaner to have them removed. I closed the popup, but then my Google toolbar told me that "this site" might require me to install something to do with that DriveCleaner thing.

It's just my opinion, but that doesn't seem like something Neopets would want on their site. However, I can't seem to find the place that lets me report ads. Can someone help me out? o_O

I've seen that too. I thought it came from another site...but now I'm sad to hear to came from neopets instead.

I just email them w. a general request. I figure someone would forward it to the right people.

Neo has a page in the Contact Us area concerning banner ads right here

Thankfully I have never had this problem, since the top ads never even show up, and I don't read them anyway.

Here is what the page says if you don't want to click the link:

Thanks. I guess I wasn't looking hard enough... :s

Unfortunately, I didn't think to get the source code. Hopefully someone else has reported it.

It seems that TNT could at least test those banner ads first.
