Yeah, dude, I\'ve had the same problem with Privacy Service! I just disable it when I come to NIGHTOWL. But, I also noticed it was doing with eBay, too. Now, eBay pics seem fine, but still have the same problem with NIGHTOWL. Something just seems strange to me. I\'ve never changed the settings or even added anything to the block and allow lists. Yeah, I\'m sure one of the auto updates changed something, but what? I\'ve been going to email McAfee techsupport but haven\'t had a chance to do it, yet. You shouldn\'t have to disable it every time you come here! :blink: :angry:

FYI, I figured out what the problem was with McAfee Privacy Service. All you need to do is uncheck the "Block Ads on this computer" box under the "Block Ads" tab, which is under "Options". Apparently, one of the auto updates automatically checks this box. I found this info in the McAfee Help Forum. B)

Yup, that was the problem.

Let me just add that McAfee blows! Symantec corporate is the way to go.
