These [no malware] requirements apply to software hosted
on your site or linked to from your site.
Perhaps it started with this? You linked (or let a reviewing user link) to a hacked site. I can understand Adwords taking action in that case (even when it is a simple hyperlink, it is dangerous to users of the ad network).
The support was just bad. I can not defend that. Good on you for keeping your cool.
- thefreeman 12y agoI believe this was in reference to not having "Uninstall" instructions on his site.
- compbio 12y agoCould be part of it. 1. Add a link to the uninstall instructions on my download page. I told him that my uninstall was completely standard for the platforms I support (Windows and Mac). But he insisted. I looked at point two: 2. Remove some links that were ‘redirections’ from my reviews page. and was wondering what that was originally all about. Could be linking to malware, but I also do know that Google has become stricter in attacking linking practices where money could have exchanged hands. When you run an affiliate program with Amazon for instance, it is a good idea to "nofollow" these links, to make sure you don't run afoul of these rules. Then again, it seems a lot of things just went wrong in this case. Having just received a warning that a 5-year-old 960.gs fixed width site of mine was delisted from Mobile search for being "not friendly to mobile users" I can now better sympathize.
