i hope i'm asking this in the right forum:
my company's web site is nimlok.com and it specializes in display and exhibit design and manufacturing (this is NOT an ad, please read forward and you will see why i am mentioning this)
one of our distributors claims that sometimes, when he goes to our web site, nimlok.com is not th eonly thing he gets. he also gets a pop-up window from a company whose web site is exhibitstogo.com
our companies are from the same industry (that's why the explanation at the beginning of my post), so it seems like somehow it gets detected and a pop-up comes. but HOW???
i reviewed our home page, and there's no pop-up script on it of any kind.
the guy is using IE6, if that helps any.
i think it is totally bizzare for it to happen.
the only explanation i can possibly come up with is if he uses kazaa or any similar thing. i never used one, so i am not sure exactly how they work, but as far as i understand it constantly runs in the background, so may be it has some kind of mechanism to "trace" the web sites he visits and then give him pop-ups. i am not sure how crazy this idea sounds, but i have no other explanation.
may somebody can shed a light on this mistery?
thanks.
