Other video games, TV shows, movies, general chit-chat...this is an all-purpose off-topic board where you can talk about anything that doesn't have its own dedicated section.

i went to check out this tool that is posted in the 2003 download center. i got hit by a barrage of pop-up windows. one of them couldn't be closed and when I clicked on what I thought was an 'x' i got an icon on my taskbar that won't go away. now everytime i get online i have a windows popping up every 5 minutes and I can't get that icon off of my taskbar.
i think Ariel Santarelli should be banned from NLSC and that his bogus link should be deleted. i couldn't even download his stupid game photographer, and now I have this damned 'Scratch and Win' shit permanently attached to my computer. I'm pissed.

I finally found the exe in my Windows folder, deleted it and erased all of my cookies and temporary internet files. NOW i don't have the pop-up nightmare or the taskbar icon. but still, what kind of crap is that? he should be held accountable for this.

The file has been removed. Again, my apologies to everyone who tried to download the file and encountered those problems, I was unaware of the situation.
