First let me just say i am amazed at how little knowledge people have about this stuff. Zango has been around for ages. Just search for 180 solutions. They are btw pretty easy on the surfer. There is some shit out there that would make you shudder if you could see what is does. Believe me i know.
With the VAST amounts of traffic we control the answer is simple. Educate the surfer. Point them to the myriad of Adware removal software programs offered for free. (If "free" is a word you are allergic to than webroot has an affiliate program for spysweeper).
If you have traffic throw up some links to any of the following:
http://www.lavasoftusa.com/products/...e_personal.php
http://www.microsoft.com/athome/secu...e/default.mspx
If you are an affiliate you would show a great deal of good will by mailing your customers with information about adware and links to removal tools.
For those who are going to whine about anti-spyware software removing cookies imho its a very small price to pay for the volume of lost sales due to adware. Remember porn is an impulse buy so your cookie is safe. These programs dont usually run more than once a day so you will still get credit for your sales.
Educate the sufer. Thats really the ONLY way to combat this shit. All the posting on GFY won't remove the last barrier. The integrity of the surfers computer.
