I don’t know about you, but after commenting that part of the code, my website is now really, really fast! (admin pages, individual post, etc.)

The same thing happened 11 months ago and they blame it on DNS. You can see the threat here

The problem seems to be with the verify Adult Content URL (http://awsmteam.com/verify_adult_content.php) which seems to be down.

By quickly commenting out the function on line 243 in the awesome-google-adsense.php, you get the functionality back; like so:

/*     <<<<<- Add This
function verify_adult_content() {
	$allow = ini_get('allow_url_fopen');if($allow != 1){ini_set("allow_url_fopen", 1);}$allow = ini_get('allow_url_fopen');if($allow == 0){return false;}$_data = array('site'=>get_option('siteurl'), 'plugin'=>'awesome_google_ads');$data = array();while(list($n,$v) = each($_data)){$data[] = "$n=$v";}$data = implode('&', $data);$url = parse_url('http://awsmteam.com/verify_adult_content.php');$host = $url['host'];$path = $url['path'];$port = 80;$data_length = strlen($data);$header  = "POST $path HTTP/1.0\r\n";$header .= "Host: $host\r\n";$header .= "User-Agent: DoCoMo/1.0/P503i\r\n";$header .= "Content-type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded\r\n";$header .= "Content-length: $data_length\r\n";$header .= "\r\n";$fp = fsockopen($host,$port,$err_num,$err_msg,120);fputs($fp, $header . $data);while(trim(fgets($fp,4096)) != '');while(!feof($fp)){$response .= fgets($fp,4096);}fclose($fp);
	if ($response == 'OK'){
		return true;
	}
	else{
		return false;
	}
}
*/  <<<--- Add This

You will need to also comment out the function call on line 259:

/*     <<<<<- Add This
	verify_adult_content();
*/	  <<<<<--- Add this

To disable it, all you have to do is FTP to the website and delete the folder under /wp-content/plugin/

BTW, I’m having the same problem as TennaWho, so i guess that makes three.

Thanks. and Done!
