Adwords and Overture Content Match

Both showing on InfoSpace?

I have been playing with a new overture account trying to compare the results to Adwords. I noticed just today what appears to be both Adwords and Overture ads showing on some of my "referrer pages". (Infospace property) In fact I have a page up on my computer now that shows only three ads for a particular keyword- all of them mine. One from Overture and two from Adwords. Obviously there is low competition for that keyword but I don't understand two adwords ads showing for me at the same time.

Looking at Overture and Adwords descriptions it seems that they are both using infospace- are there others that do the same?

I just dumped AdWords today out of frustration of having my ad campaigns frozen due to low performing keywords; ones that AdWords had highly recommended. I was thinking of signing up for Overture's version of AdWords. Do you have any advice to offer on how to deal with Overture?

I think a few of the meta search engines show both. most portals / search sites are signed up with just one or the other though.

I remembered that I once used Overture, who also had a long reach, but were way beyond my advertising budjet. I was just looking at Mamma.com a few minutes ago, and their CPC format appears to be quite friendly. Has anyone had any experience dealing with mamma.com?
