Okay, this evening I noticed high CTR, plenty of clicks but below average sales - So i run a search on some of my keywords on google.co.uk , I click my ad and it goes to ANOTHER WEBSITE! , I try it again and this time it goes to a DIFFERENT WEBSITE than before! At first I thought some one hijacked my adwords account but all the data is unchanged, the URLs on my ad have not been altered - GUYS WHATS GOING ON! CHECK YOUR ACCOUNTS - is this some kind of spyware?

Client-side hijack, sounds like. Run Adaware & Spybot Search & Destroy to start... see if they turn up anything, especially the BHO and Hosts file checker.

Sounds like scumware to me.
