Stealth Installers from Pop-up ads
In the last 5 minutes I have had 3 different stealth installers, generated by the pop-ups I believe, try to install add-ons to my PC whilst browsing this forum.
One was Gatorcorp (Quite common on a lot of websites I know), but the other two I have never seen before.
On top of that I am seeing a pop-up ad on every click of a page. I thought the frequency was much lower than that.

Hmm....we are meant to be a popup free zone.
Anyway, I'll get on to the advertisers about this.

That is really weird, since I haven't got one popup yet.
Anyway, I've complained to the advertisers and am waiting for their response.....probably Monday.

Been told by advertiser that this should no longer occur.
Let me know if you still see them.
