Gator, Spawn Of Satan

[Inverse Icarus]

alright markos, i know poly needs to make money, and i don't use popup blockers, i actively support the site when i can.

but gator just installed on my system while on poly. GATOR.

watch who you get in bed with markos, this piece of **** is a ****ing virus in every sense of the word

[Spiffor]

Ugh.
Gator really, really sucks. I hope you get rid of this pest quickly

[Inverse Icarus]

it's gone, but the fact that poly gave me it is wrong. bad markos, BAD!

Jesus, what kind of a browser do you have and with what settings? Get a real browser any Gecko powered browser or Opera, plus set proper settings. I have had no spyware issues with Poly since I started manually handle all cookies and block any pop-up windows with Mozilla Firebird and Mozilla.

None the less, that's a bad move, Markos. In general you get very cookified nowadays on Poly, unless you handle them manually or block all cookies. qkserv.net, adserv.com, etc. Plus of course the vB cookie from apolyton.net.

Never, never, never, NEVER use Opera! Not only it's a terrible browser (and I've seen it since it emerged), it also might have spyware in it... I had a nice article somewhere.

Yes, I know that article by The Register. However I have also seen the official response from Opera Software and the discussion about it. There's no firm evidence by impartial parties and Opera Software has denied it and come forward with a good explanation.

Hmm, I could confirm impartially . Well, whatever, Opera has never done a good thing for me .

[Rasbelin]

I.e. use a Gecko browser.

That's a good question... are you even sure you got it from Apolyton, since nobody else is claiming that they got it from here
