When I browse GOG, suddenly there are some extremely annoying Webspades adds in the middle of the screen. How come? I find it very annoying, especially as Webspades install some notoriously malicious spyware related to Qone8. If it is something allowed by GOG I'd kindly ask you to stop allowing it.

Sounds like your PC is infected; never had that experience on various PCs.

It's not. 99% it's your browser that has been hijacked. Try running the browser in safe mode (add-ons disabled), then try to verify which one causes the ads to show.

I found it.

It was a leftover from an infection I was certain I had completely removed. Pesky hijackers. Sorry, GOG. :)

Qone8 is very active again.

Sometimes when you remove it - it may keep some parts of it in your registry and other places. Use special tools like malwarebytes, adwcleaner spyhunter etc - http://soft2secure.com/knowledgebase/qone8-com-virus
