What's the deal with these Matchmaker links?

[macoule30]

How come every post that contains the word "love" or "girlfriend" automatically makes that word a hyperlink to Matchmaker.com?

Is this some new funding scheme? It's cool if it is. It's doing it on The Onion too.

Love, kisses, boyfriend, dating.

It's your browser, I think. It's not IRC (or the Onion).

It looks like there is some spyware on your computer.....most people have tons of it on their computer.....it allows companies to see what you're doing online, and also creates a lot of popups from your internet browser and a bunch of other annoying stuff......to search and get rid of that stuff on your computer.....download this program.



Adaware

Yikes, I installed Ad-Aware and it found 99 spyware type things on my computer.

Yeah, the sick thing is that there are thousands and thousands of sites that sneakily put stuff on your computer so you have to do it on a regular basis.....I think Adaware is a trial version but it's probably worth a few bucks to get a full version.......Gator is the biggest offender, I sent them an email and got a bullshit pretyped response...

Wow! 239 components found!

Gator was all over the place. Thanks for the tip.

Can anyone beat 317?

And, yeah, Gator was everywhere....I hate the Gators...

GO VOLS THIS SATURDAY!!!!!

Thanks for the 411!

A while back I downloaded "popup killers" from kazaa, I thought that was helpful. Wow was I missing out! Glad to have found out about the spy software.
