I think you must have been to http://www.xolox.com first and got infected there. They aren't affiliated with http://www.xolox.nl

You are right, the spyware was not installed by the link at xolox.nl.
Sorry.

USE AD-AWARE FIRST!!! Then come and complain.

I installed AOL for a friend and SPAM EVERYWHERE!!!
Took me a long time to get rid of it all. every time I logged to the net pop ups everywhere!!!

AOL SUCKS, get a real ISP and quit being such a looser computer idiot.

In the process of posting this reply AdSubtract Pro blocked 35 Ads and four Pop-ups.

Gnutellaforums.com 30 Ads 4 Pop-ups
Local 4 Ads
Rydium.com 1 Ad

Free enterprise is just wonderful, people are paid to post Ads and people are paid to write programs to block them. At least I still have the choice of blocking them for now, although it is not free it is worth the money to me at least since I do not like having other people decide what I should see on my computer screen.

Default Wow, now here's some stupidity

KayaMan does not put popups on our chat clients. Period.

I would love to know how you got gator/etc from the SIGNED jPilot applet. That is a clean, professional well paid for applet. It is NOT adware. With an up to date copy of ie, there are NO known vulnerabilities to make somebody download and run something without their knowledge.. oops, you're an idiot.

Next time learn wtf you are talking about. You're as bad as the moron with the packet sniffer - or are you the same person.

That brings up an OT question I've had for a while. Cyclo, why do you have html turn on in these forums? It is a security hole and really should be disabled.
