Fixed it, For some weird reason when I went to my page through the MAMP webstart page, the ads popped up. If I inserted the same url manually http://localhost:8888/, there were no ads.

Ok glad you solved it but I still don't understand why you could have these ads...

It's really odd, Like that I honestly don't know how could these ads be displayed on your localhost, I followed this tutorial some months ago and I had no problem with it and If I remember well, no ads were added. Would it be possible for you to post a screenshot of the problem here ? If possible the code behind it as well. For this, inspect these elements (banners) with your google chrome dev tool or firebug for firefox. This way we'll find a solution.
