Well after signing up for free maple points on my account, i came across one of the choices, (sorry i forgot the name) that ended with lius. Anyway, it required a download and installation, and when i did so my kaspersky picked it up as a trojan or worm (sorry memory is a little hazy since it happened 2~3 days ago) so if the option for that site is still there, just a heads up

My Kapersky picked it up as well but don't worry it didn't infect your computer.

Download & installation ones aren't guaranteed to give the points btw. I downloaded 3 and none of them rewarded me & 2 of them contained viruses- trojans.

Aren't they just cookies that make it so the third-party company can tell if you installed it?
