remove_action( ‘wp_head’, ‘feed_links’ );

..and then maybe change your jQuery to the latest, 1.7.1 ..not 1.3.1 ;)

I thought i would add £10 to my paypal account because there was one more item i had my eye on. That left me with with about £3.50 in my bank account. I used some of that to buy some food from McDonalds, which left me with about £1 in my bank account. While i was on paypal that evening, i noticed the £2 ebay fees which were shown, they were trying to take it out of my bank account!!! So i quickly decided to withdraw the £10 that was in my Paypal account, to cover it. I went to the supermarket just around the corner the night after, hoping to spend the £1 i had in the bank account on one last bit of food before i got paid. Oh the shock, £19 in the red. Then the other £10 just got swallowed up by the bank charges debt. Thanks to ebay not only was in debt, but also hungry. There's absolutely no way that i gave ebay permission to take money out of bank account. It never did this before, it always took the fees from my paypal account. When i listed items prior to this, my paypal balance gradually went down from £6 to around £1. I assume that was them taking listing fees from my paypal balance. That £6 had been sat in there for months, before i listed those items on ebay, so it must have been. Not that they told me what the money had been taken for, no, it just disappears. So why go from taking it out of my paypal account one week, to taking directly from my bank account the next? I certainly didn't change anything for them to do this, nor did i get any notice that they would be doing this. So in fear of them trying a second time and ending up with more bank charges, i removed my bank account and card details from paypal. There's just no way i could afford for that to happen and just have money flying out of the window. A couple of weeks after i get a nice letter from a debt collection agency, saying that i owe £13 (ebay fees) and £8 dca charges on top. I was fairly worried at first, but after doing some research i found out that the dca wasn't too much to get worried about. I finally re-added my bank details to my paypal account around two months after and paid the ebay fees via their website. But i got a letter from the dca the other week saying i still owe them their £8 fee. "If it isn't in our hands by" such and such a date......i still haven't paid. I found this website by searching because i'm worried it will happen again, i already had another bank charge a few weeks ago because of some subscription i signed up for (which i'm trying to cancel) tried to take take £13.50 out of my bank account instead of the 10.99 a month which it said on the tin. Although the problem is, i currently have items on ebay and removing the bank details from paypal and then re-adding them is such a hassel. (P.S. I knew no one really cares to read this and it's quite boring, but anyway, there's my story...............so far) I had this problem a few months ago.

But the new GA tracking code has to be put in the header (as Google says, above the tag) So, does your code go in the footer and normal GA code goes in the header?
