very interesting, so as below i had run the spyware/adware sweep and went to play a PC game that i've had a couple of years and was told that it won't run because the computer couldn't find a piece of the program, weird but not the first time something has got messed up, it is after all ME i'm running.....so i uninstall and reinstall the program, go to fire it up and spysweep comes up, adware detected, now there is a piece of adware in the program and it is embedded in such a way that you can't run the program/game without it.....cute.......on the other hand the company it was "aimed" at is now defunct.....but interesting...i'm curious to find out if any other of the games i have have adware embedded......well you learn something new every day.....and as i said before i'm a nerd not a geek.......
