I just ran a trial scan of Spyware Detector and it turned up high security threats related to 2 poker software programs you are probably using.

Titan and party poker.

What does anyone else know about this issue?

Well I know why it does it for Party. Every time you go anywhere near there site you get umpteen types of spam. This is one of the many reasons I hate that site. Don't know about Titan though.

Might be just cookies so you don't have to enter your password every time you go play.

If Titan is included, then its probally software related issue, I dont think their software is gonna hold up much longer... so this would go for Noble as well.
Only reason I even bother with either site is that my leagues that play on still continue to try and hold their tournies there... sigh....

Poker rooms in general are one of the worse sites for cookies and spyware related issues. The big ones are not so bad but you can get alot of stuff from poker sites. You just need to empty your cookies often (not a bad idea for anyone to do weekly anyway).

Yes, but only one byte at a time.
