I just recently reformatted my computer to clean out all the spyware because I couldn't with spyware cleaning programs. I didn't have any spyware until I came here. I've gotten a ton of spyware recently and I believe it's coming from the sponsors, though I don't know which. This is the only site I ever have open when I am visiting here. I get TV Media a lot, sometimes bargain buddy, and sometimes I get spyware that doesn't activate until I reboot my computer and load up internet explorer. I'm using Spy Sweeper to clean the spyware and it alerts me when new spyware is detected. Again, I don't know which sponsors are doing this but I believe it is coming from here. Thought you should be aware.

occasionally one of our advertisers gets sneaky and tries to slip a spyware ad past us. If you find one that looks suspicious, view the source code of the everquest page you are looking at, and post it here or e-mail it to me or one of the others, and we'll see abou getting it nuked.
