Reply With QuoteSo what's the ad for exactly?
Some company named "Cydoor" is displaying very ugly advertisements over the Apolyton page, in a different language than the one in the Forum (probably based on my IP address). I also need to click on it for it to move away.
Do the Apolyton mods realize that this is very annoying?
I can see the need for ads, but not in this way!

Some IQ test (which you just failed.)
Is God willing to prevent evil, but not able? Then he is not omnipotent. Is he able, but not willing? Then he is malevolent. Is he both able and willing? Then whence cometh evil? Is he neither able nor willing?
Then why call him God? - Epicurus
Hehe, but what is the product? Are they expecting you to pay to learn you are stupid?
Cydoor is evil spyware. Kill it.

As Maqiladora said, it´s evil spyware. AFAIK it has nothing to do with Poly... Info on how to remove it: http://www.spywareguide.com/product_show.php?id=7

Strange. I only get it on Poly, and particularly on that Forum.
Will look into the URL / HTML next time I see one.

I just got a similar one, only it was an advertisement for smilies. It was flash, but I couldn't find any way to get a url unfortunately.

Just got another one. Cydoor again. Clicking it linked to:

and the redirect got me to:
http://euro.tridentlounge.com/home.p...042005&lang=en
I saw it on a private Apolyton Forum:
http://apolyton.net/forums/forumdisp...s=&forumid=244
Come to think of it, that's the only Forum I'm getting them at. Maybe this has to do with the fact that I open that Forum first, and I'm only getting the ads during the first screen of my Poly session.

I've also had that ad, but I don't see what makes it different from any of the other pop-ups I'm getting on 'poly... Probably because I'm using Firefox.
Just got one, using IE for the first time on poly for months(FF has some problems).

They're usually for the multi-team democracy games so that no one from another team can infiltrate the plans of your team.
If you play Civ3 the Euphorica team from the C3CDG is looking for more members.
You must mean "they're usually for the multi-team democracy games so that no one from another team caninfiltrate the plans of your teamreport you for scoring cheap +1's".
While all the demogames I've been a part of our amazingly on topic most of the time, I'm not going to respond any more than that since I know that's a standard troll in the A/C forum.

goto notepad.com on your machine and start typing!
Haven't been here for ages....
Plus pays for no ads right? and ads pay to keep site open right? good site, ads work for me for now.
There are good demo games open now
But they can still see what is going on after the fact at least, and maybe during.Originally posted by Shogun Gunner

Now this is the worst ad I've seen on Poly sofar.
I can't even click it away!
It appears after I click the Cydoor ad away.
Now what is going on? I run Spybot and AdAware regularly. This only happens on Apolyton...

This might give a clue.
I get an Error report from IE after the page has loaded. Opening that, I get the message below. It seems as if Apolyton invokes some Google-ad mechanism... ?! But why is Cydoor interfering?
