I belong to a certain soap talk forum and they have ads. All their ads are from websites I recently just visited. I was on lovefilm.co.uk and then went onto the soap forum and the ads that were popping up were all lovefilm ads. This happens all the time, if I am on another website I can guarantee that they will show up in the ads next time I visit that forum.

How does that work? is that spyware?
