    Issue was spyware. Ads on PriusChat.com NSFW :mad:

    To Danny

    I recently seen some ads that I don't think is appropriate for PC. I'll post pictures below.

    The first one had a banner at the top that jiggles so fast I about punched my monitor. The first time I viewed the page the ad on the right had an up skirt shot of a girl. I'm not complaining about that but I don't think it is appropriate for PC. The ad that is shown in my screen grab is better but still not appropriate. Same thing about the one on the left.

    The second pic shows girls kissing and some other NSFW stuff. Again not complaining about that but I don't think is appropriate for PC.

    I don't need to see simi porn here on PC. I can get the full porn for free from 4chan or 7chan :D

    I know you need to make a little money with ads but could you try to filter out some of these?

    [EDIT] Images removed. See My post below for details.

    I haven't seen those ads on the site yet, so thank you for providing the screen caps. All of our advertising is handled through Google Adsense, and my impression of Adsense is that they do not allow advertisements like this. I'm going to take your screen caps and email Google to let them know that these and any other "dating" sites need to be filtered out from being featured on PC.

    My apologies.

    Not safe for work? Those aren't safe for home, either. I already get enough teasing for the time I spend here.

    The Adsense control page lets you filter out specific ad sources...
    Oh, and I never see those ads. Hmm... what threads are you surfing? LOL

    Maybe FunSara87 owns a Prius or Danny can set up a "Hot Prius Babes" site. I'm no prude but this is a car site. It would be more fun to have car ads for stuff we won't buy.

    The ads on VBulletin forums trigger off the cookies you have on your PC.

    What have you been looking at lately??? :eek::eek::eek:

    Jay, I think you have posted the attachment that will surpass Evan's mileage document as "the most downloaded attachment."


    "Priuschat.com . . . #1 place for college girls"
    Yeah, I wish!

    OK My bad. After refreshing the page a few times I found out what was really gong on.

    Here are the issues

    1. IE! DAMN IE!! I wish I could install firefox. :mad:

    2. Looks like spyware got installed and was overlaying ads on top of google ads.

    Apparently someone here at work logged in as an admin and installed some crapware. After spending half my day removing the crap I'm finally back to normal. No more barley nude girls on PC for me. :(

    Danny I'm sorry. You don't need to contact google. Its been years since I have dealt with crapware and I just did not see until after I posted. Well its back to work for me. :(

    :laser:IE.

    I didn't think those looked like Google Ads, but I didn't want to call you a liar :)
