Why is Google analytics and omniture.com allowed to monitor the avast forum pages ?.
Same reason it is almost everywhere on the web.
This cannot be qualified as spyware: http://www.ghostery.com/gcache/?n=T21uaXR1cmU%3D&s=aHR0cDovL3N0YXRpYy5hdmFzdC5jb20vc2hhcmVkL2ovc19jb2RlLmpz
and it is in plain sight and whenever you want to block it, use Do Not Track Plus extension in Google Chrome -
it is ad tracking script: http://www.abine.com/whotheyare.php?c=
Avast has a privacyscore of 80 which is quite good, while compared for instance to edition.cnn dot com
that scores a meagre 39 with apparently no tracking scripts but with a facebook request blocked by my Disconnect Chrome extension,
and RedSheriff IMRWorldwide hidden interactive media intelligence.
So what is your point?
