Then please enlighten us. What is your basis for concluding that "there is adware on the site"? Why do you seem to be the only one who has encountered this mysterious adware? If you now have warnings that your software has blocked installation of adware from the Calibre site then I suspect your system still has problems. If you would like to post some screenshots we may be able to assist you.
