The only thing I remember was him saying that the ads occasionally bring in enough money to make a "profit" (i.e., there's enough left over to use on non-TSVN personal stuff), so I guess it's to his advantage to have people click on the ad by whatever means possible. But that doesn't mean that it's a good idea.

So how about putting a small border around the ad that says "Advertisement"?
