no i haven't installed it but before i got a firewall installed on my pc many times without any consent had adware installed on my pc just by visiting sites and sure enough AFF was one that popped up among others. this was a few years ago but there was nothing saying where it came from or how to get rid of it. apparently things have changed due to the threatening legal landscape BUT>>>

no matter how clear it might be..why do you think its ok to use others content as a means for advertising over top of their own advertising?
