    I went to the co-op login page and I saw this (attached) Is that by design or do i have some dodgy spyware on my comp?

    I don't see it always, only sometimes and normally upon logout....

    It goes to ads.clicksor.com

    sure looks like a hijack to me - the google ad is misplaced and cut in half on the image you sent, with clicksor in the middle.

    Doesn't look good.

    That is clixor, when you hover over the word "advertising" you get that ad.

    No spyware.

    There is no Google ad there. The one under it is a Clicksor ad. Clicksor sucks, but I use it once in awhile when AdSense and YPN have nothing to serve.

    Never seen it before, or even heard of clicksor.

    The only ads i've seen like that were some spyware my mother managed to install.

    Thanks for clearing it up.
