That's funny, James! This post was written in July 2009. I initially thought changing the setting would be the fix. What I learned in the weeks following this post, and thanks in part to great comments, is that the problem was not with the settings. Instead, a third party ad network was in violation of Facebook's Terms of Service (TOS). Facebook has made many significant changes to their privacy settings and the TOS, I believe, in part, to my experience, similar experiences of others, and the outcry of Facebook users as a result of these experiences.
