Before we ended our conversation, she asked for my full name and IC no. then I just said I'm Ms. J lar, and ended the call. <strong>G:</strong> Good move. Never give out personal details over the phone to someone you don't know. I did receive this kind of calls before, but she told me she’s doing some kind of survey for some electrical shop.

My friend once gave his full name, and he was so stupid he fax his IC over too and few months down the road he found out the person used his details to apply for a soft loan. also this is off topic, is your horizontal adsense in all 3 articles served automatically? Or did u manually code it that way? Because i can't seem to do it automatically. I currently do it like this; i have 5 articles in main page. article 1 - 3 have the adsense like yours. Then when i write another article, i have to remove the adsense from the previous 3rd entry and re-add to the new one (if you know what i mean). Is there a plugin to help ? Or can advise ah? <strong>G:</strong> WL said she wanted to see what they would do and how they would handle it. On to the off topic. It's automatically done. It's not a plugin perse. Just a simple statement that counts the number of ads it has inserted and stops at three. Quite simply, in the main wordpress loop, just put an if statement with a counter. E.g. $i = 0; main_loop if($i++ < 3) insert add end_main_loop You can even extend it to insert ads every other article, etc. I too got that same call.. but i hung up the minute the person said it was a survey.
