Yes, that plugin exactly.
The bit in the screenshot that says 'Index Ads' how can I change that to say: 'Sponsored Link' or something?

just open it in notepad and change text

open ./inc/languages/english/iad.lang.php in a editor (eg. notepad++)
find below code AND change "Index Ads" to whatever you want ; save file & re-upload ..

$l['iad'] = "Index Ads";

Am I being blind? I cannot see it anywhere..

Is that the iad.php file or the iad.lang.php file?
