[quote][i]Quote from: Facet[/i] [b] To any administrators that may read this: [/b] Any ads on this site that run through yieldmanager.com install adware and spyware on PCs that can be very difficult to remove. It is irresponsible to leave these ads up due to the threats they pose to the users of this site. I'm unsure of how to contact this site's administrators directly, so if anyone who is capable of doing so happens to read this, please direct their attention to this post. [b] To anyone else who reads this: [/b] I accidentally hit an ad while switching tasks and I had a wide array of popup-based adware installed on my computer. Some of the popups further contain dialers and trojans that can actually allow others to access information on your computer, some of which do not even require clicking on them for them to start downloading and installing the viruses. PLEASE BE CAREFUL ON THIS SITE! If you're getting popups that resemble any of the sidebar ads on this site, please look into obtaining and running Ad-Aware (Lavasoft) or NOD32 (Eset). Also, you can put www.yieldmanager.com into Google, like I did, to get some ideas on how to deal with the problem a bit more directly if you're good at understanding and modifying computer code. Again, [i] it is irresponsible for the site administrators to leave these ads up on the site. [/i] [color=blue] Please spend more time researching those companies who wish to put ads up on Somepage.
