I got in early today thinking I might burn some extra minutes on actually getting work done. Good intension... Good intension wasted by fucking adspammers. After spending 15 minutes trying to find my old Ad-Aware account info, then running two scans, we managed to find well over 600 suspicious files, programs and folders.
I am an internet advertiser. I try to do my best not to be invasive, but honestly, why should I continue in this fashion when my channels have all been blocked by the ISP and my competitors continue to get their ads in front of my customers by staying one or two steps ahead.
Personally, spam, pops and flickering banner do not bother me, as I know publishers have to make a living, and honestly, I have simple morning routines that get rid of most of this junk quickly and pretty transparently. BUT, when you start imbedding your fucking ads directly into my system software... well come on mang, you're just making me mad.

I don't know if you know this, but *I'm* actually embedded in your harddrive, so I'll appreciate you not badmouthing me, thank you.
Hey, do you know how to set up the comments like a normal blog so that people can fill in fields for 'name' and 'email'?
