It points to messenger.yahoo.com.

Dunno if you've already seen it, but anyways it's curious.

BTW the text reads: "New: You'll be able to call for free all over the world, from PC to PC, high quality". It's in Spanish.

Bah, it's just one of Google's dodgy adverts, it works with just keywords as most of you know, but there's no way to disable specific adverts for your site.

Really? Cool, I've never used Google ads personally, but I heard from someone that you can't do that...must have been wrong :p
