Forgive me, I'm new. But what is the Kaos incident you refer to?

But the website used to have ads that made my antivirus thing pop up (some sort of trojan, it said).
Key words: USED TO. They fixed that problem. So there's nothing to get ya on PPT anymore.
Darn those rumor starting people.
Yes. Any problems this site (or many other sites for that matter) originate from the ads. The closest thing I've heard of relating to cookie grabbing are trojans and spyware, both of which quickly removed. Mine you, Neopets itself also has some issues with this...possibly excluding trojans.
Also, since the forums don't have ads, they should be safe.

What? That's pathetic. Some people are just jealous about big things. Well anyway, who cares what they say? We've got good members here. We're not scammers or anything and we should just ignore them. And like you said, they have no proof so it's nothing more than a sad pathetic rumour.
