"In our test installation, Cydoor's CD_CLINT.DLL downloaded executable code to the test system [log]. While the code (a Visual C++ library, ATL.DLL) was not malicious, the program's ability to silently load executable code presents a potential security vulnerability to the user. "

OK, big deal, so you're not spying anymore, but what the hell do you think you are doing by downloading executables to my PC without my express permission? Even if their code is harmless, what if someone hacks in to the adserver and sends us all a virus or a Trojan Horse?

My response is still, "Cydoor? No thanks, PISS OFF!"
