Spyware in the Ads?

Postby Dakota93 » Mon Oct 18, 2004 9:35 pm

I have been receiving alot of blocked soyware warnigns from Spybot S&D when I visit Simviation. It seems that many of the advertisements contain spyware as the warnings do not always occur.

I use SimV all the time (Addicted!) on my pC, run AdAware 6.0 and it never picks anything up....

A find a lot of tracking cookies from advertising wherever I go, but not from SimV.
