Khai, If its not rendo or DAZ that hired the advertisers, then I guess that makes DAZ and possibly Rendo a victim as well.  At least DAZ now knows that someone is using their logo to lure people.  I can see where folks might think they have a DAZ coupon and then go to the websites that might further have adware coding.  I hope that both companies will investigate on their own and protect their good names.

 

again. it's nothing to do with them at all. it read the content of the page and formed it's own links. if you were on a page about cookers, it would have linked cookers. or golf, golf balls and so on.

it's something your machine was, and still is, infected with. I'd recommend using a program like Malwarebytes http://www.malwarebytes.org/ to properly clean this off your system. I'd then recommend running a trusted antivirus, such as AVG, Avast!, Kaspersky, etc (never norton or mcaffee. they cause their own issues).  just removing registry links will not save you from issues and ccleaner does not remove malware in any shape or form.
