MalwareBytes AntiMalware (MBAM) will find a lot of it for you if you run it.

This site mostly suffers from the "Spigot.A" adware program. It is not really a virus as much as a way to spam continuous ads and info back and forth from your own computer to the advertising agency.

You can do a search on getting rid of Spigot.A and it will lead you through a few free steps to eliminate it (that is, until it somehow breaches the wall again and you have to start eliminating it all over).

One can only assume that Rick Bin feels that allowing such adware programs generates him more revenue on a free site even as it chases away current and potential viewers.


For that reason I'm out to Rick either fixes it or acknowledges it. I frequent other sites and when this type of feedpack is posted they look into it. No sure what the problem is here. A user of this site shouldn't have to run adware and whatever else, this isn't a site equivelant to porn junk sites but the user is getting the same treatment.

As I posted I'm out till things change.


Otto is my co-pilot.
