Online Casinos Advertising Over Gamblers Anonymous Page
from the targeted-audience dept
It's not entirely clear what's happening here, but people are saying that when they visit the Gambler's Anonymous website in Australia, they're receiving pop-up ads for online casinos. As you might imagine, this is not considered appropriate. However, I'm confused as to what's actually happening. The folks running the Gambler's Anonymous site say that they have no control over the pop-ups, which wouldn't make sense if it's their site. Also, I visited the site and there don't seem to be any pop-ups at all. About the only thing I can guess is that these pop-ups are being caused by the type of insidious adware that we've been talking about quite frequently today. It would be nice if the report had more details.

Fortunately there are effective ways of getting rid of this adware through adware removal programs. Two adware removal programs that are highly recommended and are absolutely free are "Ad-Aware" and "Spybot Search & Destroy" which also removes other bad stuff as well.
