For about the last ten days or so there has been a bug in the Kontera ad-code causing attempts to access pages that do not exist when a visitor ‘mouses over’ a Kontera ad-unit. This bug manifests itself as a ’404 Page Not Found’ error at the website hosting the Kontera ads. Sites with heavy traffic may see hundreds or thousands of these errors per hour.
Most errors are from trying to access the following page names:
/YahooAlgo
/FreeDictionary
/Info.com
/NewYahoo
(perhaps others, depending on your niche/content/ads targeted to your site)
My sources tell me that Kontera is aware of the problem and is working on a fix which should be pushed out in the next few days.
Hi Randy,
This is Jonathan from Kontera. The fix was pushed out successfully and everything on your site looks good. We appreciate your help in identifying the bug, and if there’s anything else Scott and the rest of the Kontera team can do to assist you, don’t hesitate to let us know.
Thanks,
