MSN & AOL Running Errorsafe Active-X — Oops?
March 24th, 2007
Sandi Hardmeier, author of ‘Spyware Sucks‘, has caught AOL not properly auditing their ads and running Banner Pop and Active-X ads. Click for article. What’s interesting is that she caught MSN running Errorsafe just a month ago, which she detailed here.
I’ve spent a lot of time tracking down this scam and I think it’s time to share that knowledge. Shortly I will post all my knowledge of this scam — what to look out for and how I think as an industry we can stop it. Stay tuned.
