[Norman O'Neil]

I have been using this on 4 sites for a few months now. You may be 
right that this is an arcane way of doing it. Maybe I won't need it, 
unfortunately I have around 150 + articles with that bit of code in it 
now and changing it may be somewhat of a bigger project than I want to 
go through and I do like the old modulebot as it offers the added 
benefit of not being tied into a user position.

I am using phpadsnew and yes there are an enormous number of options 
most of which I use.  I am testing the new module that was written for 
phpadsnew and mambo and will probably use that for future in-line 
advertising.
