Good Free or inexpensive ad server solutions

Hi All.

Just wondering what solid ad server solutions folks are using these days.

I love the power of PHPAdsNew (and the price). However, I don't want Norton to block EVERY ad by default. We don't use pop-ups (or unders). Just GIFs and Text Ads. But Norton, by default, blocks all the ads.

How is it that Google (and others) are showing their ads when I run NIS on my PC. Yet my site and advertisers suffer.

Thanks.

I am not familiar with PHP ad solutions but it might be possible to fix what you have. Does the ad script display the banner as inline html or as a iframe/javascript/etc? If not then norton must be picking up the target URL which you could fix by using your own redirect script in place of the actual url.

It's pulling in the ads via JS.

I have read on the P.A.N. site that some people have changed the file names and directories to remove words like "ad" with some success.

I am just looking to see what else is out there that people like, in terms of ad serving.

You might want to checkout Adpeeps.

It's a pretty good php ad server program (low cost, but not free).

Handles textads, banner ads, flash ads, advertiser payments (something that phpadsnew is lacking) and a few other whistlebells.
