Deplayer.net getting rid of re-direct.

If you were redirected from this blog, you have my apologies. Apparently a company called "deplayer.net" will pay you to put a redirect on your website. They don't appear to have any checks in place to make sure that the owner of the website is actually notified. so, apparently some one unbeknownst to me has been making money off of redirecting MY blog. If you're another google blogger, be very very careful about what gadgets you add to your website as this is apparently how many of these theives take over your blog. The only way I found to make it stop was to go in thru the dashboard in edit mode, click "Edit" on my various gadgets and watch to see if that gadget redirects. If it does, I closed that tab, went back into it from the layout screen and started clicking the "stop" button on my web browser (I have internet explorer.. the button is an "X" right at the end of the address bar) Once I had the redirect stopped, I was able to click the "remove" button. Then I had to really click fast on the "OK" on the popup window to get it to actually remove. gadgets actually originating from blogger.. such as my archive, my own pictures etc were ok but a bowling game, gandhi quotes etc that other people made and then made available contained the redirect. I had 3 things that did the redirect. I wonder if we can sue deplayer.net for the money they paid someone else to use our sites without our permission

Animal Farm update part 2

We took the other half of the herd to the vet today. He's impressed with Ludo's progress. The heart murmur is still there but not as obvious. He's filled out tremendously. If he keeps doing this well, we'll be able to do surgery on the growth on his chest in January. We're very lucky that everyone gets along (so far). My poor skinny old cat is just showing her age and my great big moose cat is NOT overweight at 17lbs. The only negative thing (aside from the bill) was that I forgot to give Loki dramamine before we left so he hurled. He managed to miss the plastic tablecloth that we covered the back seat with as well as the floor mat but he did hit the cat cage and the exposed carpet over the hump between the seats. My hubby didn't appreciate me laughing at the fact that he'd be driving to Westlake with a smelly car but then, I was the one cleaning the source of the smell while he got dressed for the meeting so I figure I can laugh all I want.
