More on Sitemeter and Spyware

Today, sitemeter is down again and I went to check the code on my site using a firefox plugin and found that as well as the code that I expect to see, there is something extra:

<iframe width=”0″ height=”0″ frameborder=”0″ xsrc=”http://dg.specificclick.net/?u=http%3A//vinlai.com/blog/&r=” style=”display: none;”>

Wondering why is sitemeter sending info to dg.specificclick.net? Me too! Did a search on google and found this post on “SiteMeter and Spyware (Sort of)“, it was found that this piece of code will return a set of tracking cookies. So I cleared my cookies and reload this page again, didn’t find any suspecious cookies yet, only cookies from sitemeter themselves so will check at a later time or another computer to confirm.
