I have rarely seen someone advertise (any product) as aggressive as they do.

They used to run this beautifully integrated ad on speedtest.net, where the robot character was rendered in the same neon green motif. It looked like it was just part of the site. That meant that Ookla must have had an incredibly close working relationship with the ad people at MacKeeper. Feels so dirty.

I actually assumed it was malware masquerading as an anti-virus.
