I’d been very happy with ZE, but after the purchase I found that my sites were getting pop-up adds. I traced the source, and found that they were no longer pointing to my server directly, but bouncing off of two of their own, where they are injecting pop-ups.
When I put two and two together, and sent thier support and email, they said their new owner was performing this for those who use web forwarding and don’t pay for any upgrade. A single upgrade, in any way was to remove the pop-ups, but they seem to remain.
The don’t seem to do it to all accounts, but I’ve been hit on 2 of 6, so far.

Dear Sir,
The popup ads are a recent addition to our free web forwarding service.
ZoneEdit was recently purchased by Dotster, and it’s their policy to
include popup ads on free accounts that use web forwarding.
With the purchase of one zone credit, popup ads are disabled. One zone
credit is $10.95, and quantity discounts are available.
Let me know if you still have any other questions. Thank you.
