I know that it is a fine line when one uses semantics but what is the difference between showing a pop-up for the competition when visiting a site and waiting for the visitor to view the next site before offering the advertisement? In both cases the content of a site has been used to present ads for the competition to visitors at the earliest opportunity.
Just in case anyone still doesn't know: Claria/Gator is now NebuAd. Gator is to NebuAd as 121media is to Phorm. Spyware..its in the genes!
