   I'm using WordPress 2.7 and I was just wondering how can i make it so that on the home page where it shows the last 10 posts, is it possible to inject specific ad-code inbetween the 5th and 6th post within the loop?

   There's probably a more WordPress-friendly way, but a simplistic hack would be to look at the index template -

   <?php while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?>

   ... stuff ...

   <?php endwhile; ?>

   In between the while and endwhile, you could have a counter, that adds up stuff, so when it gets to 5 you print your ad block.

   So it'd be something like

   <?php my_counter = 0;
   while (have_posts()) : the_post();
   my_counter = my_counter + 1;
   ?>

   ... stuff ...

   <?php if (my_counter == 5) { ?>
    ... put your ad block html here ...
   <?php } ?>

   <?php endwhile; ?>
