    Are you sure you are clean of adware that might be loading with IE? Adware causes all kinds of crazy junk.

    As Phish didn't say, it's Jupiter Media's ad service... I just run spysweeper when I surf and forget about it. I couldn't care less either way. They haven't done me any favors.

    Wouldn't adding the site to your Hosts file effectively block the site and its attempts to download?

    My firewall (Outpost) blocks ads as well as certain sites - so I don't have a problem with Jupiter Media's ad service.

    All truths are easy to understand once they are discovered; the point is to discover them. What lies behind us and what lies before us are tiny matters compared to what lies within us.
