I am a supporter of the Portable Apps Platform. Today I had a really hard time finding the download link for the apps platform because the advertisement spam (download button tricks) is really out of control. If you guys need more money, let me know, but the current ads are unacceptable on the download page. Please let me know if these can be remedied.

I've disabled Ads on the Download page. I'm still trying to work on the overall issue with our ad provider.
Sometimes, the impossible can become possible, if you're awesome!
Thank you.
So you ad network doubleclick.net is still showing malicious ads in an attempt to get people to click on ads during install of portable apps. And there are ads that appear all over the place in an attempt to obscure the links. Please instruct them to clean up there network and let them know this is an illegal practice.

It looks like the ad network is cleaned up. Thank you.
