Discovered this one on my own computer by accident. Not being a person to LIKE having info of any sort randomly shot out of my own machine without me knowing about it, I must admit to some consternation when I found a lot of "AdController" stuff on my machine. I went Googling and it seemed like your average non-nasty Ad stuff of the sort that you would expect to be removed by Spybot and Adaware. So, as I run those two progs regularly, I checked for updates, ran them both and this AdController wasn't picked up. Not being sure what that meant exactly, I decided to check out Spybot and Lavasoft web sites for info. None. I left them emails asking why their progs didn't pick it up, of course, hoping for an answer and admittedly that was only sent within the last 24 hours so I don't expect an answer yet. However, still curious. So does anyone know what AdController does, under what circumstances it runs etc? Seems to have been around a while.....
