Recently I noticed the FireFox referral button dissapeared on my site,
so I went into my adsense account and grabbed a new code. Works. Later
in the day however the referral button dissapears again and this time
using any code won't bring it back up.
I thought it was my browser (which was FireFox 3 beta) so I used IE 7.
Same problem except IE 7 shows a completely blank white box where the
button was.
Then I tried a totally different computer and still could not see the
button.
I later went to other sites which had a FireFox referral button and
they too weren't showing up on any computers/browsers I used.
So I'm thinking something's up with Google and the referral buttons.
The google ads on my site seems to work just fine.
Anyone else having their FireFox referral button dissapearing on them?

Thanks for reporting this issue. I've escalated it to our technical
specialists for further investigation, and will let you know more as
soon as I can.
I've read it with some relief, since most of my earnings come from
Firefox Buttons.
If it helps anybody I can say that text links (instead of Firefox
buttons) still work fine.
Do you know when we can expect to have this problem fixed ?
Thanks,

To those of you who are having trouble seeing referral units, what
browser and OS are you using? I heard that this issue is mainly
affecting users of Internet Explorer 7. Is anyone having trouble when
viewing the ads in other browsers?
Our engineers are working as quickly as they can to resolve this.
Sorry for the inconvenience.

It doesn't seem to be a browser issue, as the problem appears in IE
7.0.5730.11, Firefox 2.0.0.9 and Opera 9.25.
My OS is Windows XP with SP2, Dutch. I've got this problem since
yesterday despite using the latest code.

However, i still get the missed unit from time to time.
Observing 1 minute of logs (worldwide traffic), it seems that the
referral unit fails 25% of the time.
Any updates on the progress Jordan? I am sure the engineers are
working hard on it. Just want to hear someone say that I will be
earning again soon :-)
