When visitng simviation the adds are quite poor quality and annoying.  Peer gaurdian has to be disabled as it classes the sites the adds come from as spyware sites.  Could simv get some better advertisers?

Pete takes what he can get. Those ads generate money, and I'm sure he'll be grateful for a bunch of little sites than a few good ones.

WE currently use an agency - Fastclick. Fastclick is one of the most reputable in the business & you will not generally fiond spyware in our ads. That is one of the specific aims.

Spyware detectors - like trojan & spam detectors, often get a bit paranoid & identify anything that COULD be 'spyware'

I would argue that you didn't aquire tracking software at Simviation.

Our advertising is under review & will be changing shortly to own generated ads. We've been turning down requests for years for direct advertising & that makes no sense.
