Was that a adware/spyware popup asking to install I just saw from *THIS* site?

Nope. Not from here.

I assume that you were to previous sites before this one. Remember that a lot of them use delayed pop-ups that will show up even after you leave the site.

Stardock is completely against pop-ups (we hate them too) and you will never see us prompting to install something like that.

Thank you for indicating exactly what company was trying to push that. We've seen isolated ones sneak into the popup software and will be contacting the popup provider to get those removed from our rotation.

We don't want them here either.
