Bad Ad?Follow
I got several e-mails that there is a trojan horse ad that pops up on a full screen, can't be closed and tries to download a program. I can't find it anywhere. If anyone gets that ad to come up, please copy the source code and e-mail it to me so I can get rid of it.

Logged off and spammed refresh and checked different links for a while, didn't see any full screen ad.
Probably people with spyware. You should talk to the people over at Ad aware (lavasoft I think) and the "Search and destroy" people to see if they want to advertise on your site.

aye i never get any premium popup ads but im always running adaware so i know im spyware free.
I run ad-aware but it never seems to find anything, yet I know I have crap on my system somewhere. My homepage always resets itself periodically to an ad site, and I can't get rid of it!
Anybody know of a better program than Ad-aware to get rid of this spyware??

I use adaware and spybot, it's amazing the things that one or the other misses.
Over the last 15 months, we've traveled to every corner of the United States. I've now been in 57 states? I think one left to go.

Same here, always use Spybot along with Ad-aware, and update both at least once a week.
I'll set the computers to autorefresh when I get home with the firewalls down and leave them like that for a while and see if I can get anything to come up.
It's probably some IGE sponsored crap spamware ad trojan that has all the sites they couldn't buy listed as triggers.
If you can, see if you can get the people reporting it to let you know what other game related websites they ahve visited in the apst few days, see if there is a common thread...

Have not found a fullscreen one yet, but I did find one loading weatherbug, sent the source to your allakhazam@ account. Will keep looking.
i did recieve a full screen pop up twice (until i cleaned my pc out with adaware and spybot, SEVERAL times). it was black and had fireworks and some ******** like i was the 10,000,000th visitor to the site, and click yadda yadda to claim my prize.
please tell me that it wasnt for real, cause ill feel kind of stupid if i was the 10,000,000th visitor =p

oh, and another nonfull screen add (or one that didnt open) that kept trying to reopen itself and as a result made my pop up blocker explode in beeps.
happened before i read this post, so i dont have any other info. sorry.

I've been getting this and have been checking my computer with both.
I found the ******* of a site that manifested on my computer, it creates links in articles, messes with my homepage and other ****.
The page is www . runsearch . com (I made it so noone can click it)
I can't figure out how to contact them in any way! I want to ream them out in every way possible... grrrr
I'll try that website with the destroyer for sure, thanks.

I was also on this site a few days ago and I got a fullscreen pop up. I didn't click anything adn just used ctrl+alt+del. It had a button in the middle and said click enter to continue.
spybot has caught spyware programs trying to sneak by in the pop-ups several times. Although the "avenue A's" and other spyware programs arent too too bad, its not cool.
Havent kept a list, but i will now and post them at a later date.

The guy that ownes that one is one of the russian spammers out there. Usually mob related and in with the domain hoster. Probably a small timer though.

Still ahve not got the ad in question to pop, but with as slow as everything has been lately, it has been hard to hammer the site for refreshes.
No, it was on the link to Kao's Dancing Hippo site. It happened to me the other day.

That wasn't laoding any ads at all when I posted it, and there does not seem to be any ads there now. Have you tried running ad-aware Totem?
Did anyone else get an ad from that site?
