Advertisers using MSN AdCenter should be aware of an error that could be scaring away your business.

The AdCenter conversion code used to track sales from MSN Live creates the above error message when viewed in Mozilla Firefox. MSN knows about the error and as of yet has refused to create a patch that would prevent the error message from occurring.

If you are using the conversion code to track purchases, more than likely, the error message will be little more than an inconvenience for your customers. But, if the Site owner is tracking actions such as an email signup, the MSN message could confuse the consumer and the site may lose integrity because most users won’t realize that the error cannot be fixed by the website administrator.

I also believe that error is interfering with Google conversion verification. Personally, I’m stripping it out of my sites and may replace it later when MSN has a patch.
