    I've been using AdBrite for ages and have never had a problem with it. Perhaps you picked up something nasty elsewhere?

    AV can give false warnings,but if there is a ad that you suspect,send adbrite the link to the ad and a screen shot.if it is a ad from a third party ad company,do the same to them.

    i found out that there is a one 3rd party banner that is serving clicksor ads which is also producing a pop under.that could be the reason.
    i know which campaign it is.i sent adbrite an email,i'll send a pm to the adbrite guy also,might get a faster response.;)

    I believe it's spyware on your computer maybe. Is there any more info you can give?

    they never replied back to me.
    the only way to contact them is to call them,but you might get a recording that says no one is home and you should email them.:rolleyes:

    they told me that they have received complaints and are removing the 3rd party banners.
