Guess what, Mac sports fans?
For some time I've been trying to figure out how I was getting tracking (spyware) cookies planted into my Safari browser. All along I've watched my firewall log as packets were redirected to several IP addresses I didn't type. Now I know. They're coming from this web site.
You see, the server for this forum is 69.20.37.125. If you type http://69.20.37.125 into your browser pane it should bring you here. At the same time, while waiting for the Forum site to load, your browser's being redirected to at least two other ad/slum-ware sites operated by the mob. The redirects mean "hits" and market share. We're being used.
The other IP addresses, both in sequence with the IP for this site, are: 69.20.37.8 and 69.20.37.107, both coming up after DNS (Destination Name Service) resolving as ads1.inetinteractive.net. So far I haven't been able to find the spy cookies; but I'll keep looking.
Checking around (snooping, yeah... what of it?) I learned that the above ad-industry site is a front for another site, called AdComplete.com, a closed, semiprivate web site requiring name and password login. Wonder if Google would have any info on the subject?
Who are these people, and what is their game? What about it Merlyn... got any snappy come-backs on this one?
