Default Microgaming spyware removal? Warning!

XXXhttp://www.spywareremove.com/removeMicrogaming.html

A program that can be downloaded to prevent spyware from microgaming. Users who have downloaded this programme cannot view your site if you have links to microgaming poker rooms or casinos on it!!

Any ideas how to avoid this?
Also, if a user clicks through to a microgaming site from firefox, and they have to sign up for an account via internet explorer using the software, how do we get credit for this?

Is that Pacific?

My AV went nuts over Pacific last time I installed it, until I removed it.

This is an interesting thread but, unfortunately, I don't have a solution for it. Greg, Microgaming is (or was) the Prima network (Poker Time, Crazy Poker, Gaming Club, etc.). Everytime I run Spybot I have to uncheck the Microgaming "spyware" it finds.

I realised when trying to get my brother to sign up for dream poker. (forceful family marketing and bribery always works) anyway one of his excuses for not doing it was because of "prima spyware" as he called it!?

News to me. anyway, he downloaded that prog above, and carried on, soon after we found he could not access my site or many other affiliate sites!! He then obviously after a shouting match uninstalled it and all reg files, and everything went back to normal.

P.S. My bro is a bit of a tech expert by the way and wonders how many other antispyware programes hold this curse!
