I know that we hate MacKeeper as a community, create threads to teach people how to uninstall it and such, but why do we have ads for it on the right?

It's like crying out for obesity, then turning around to feed your kids a burger every meal.

I have been working with IMOG from iNet to get rid of them. I haven't heard any additional complaints until today and will ask him about them.

That's cool. I just hate how ads can track and follow you, and MacKeeper is one of the worst ones on the Mac. if it were a genuinely good app, i wouldn't care...or if they are paying big bucks to advertise on here.

This has been brought to our attention before and as cwa107 stated above we are working on getting them removed. Thanks for your patience and understanding.

It might seem simple, but we see an incredible amount of people post here about spills. Keep drinks and other liquids away from your expensive electronics!
