It is not NGs fault that your friend left a browser window open and unattended. If you do indeed find ads that have malicious content in them, get this information in order:
First and foremost, make absolutely sure it was an ad here. If your friend's siblings were messing on the computer, who KNOWS what they did.
- Exactly which ad has the spyware attached to it, including the url of the ad.
- What spyware it is.
Then, open your email and compose a message including all pertinent info. Try to be professional. Leave the swearing out, and be calm and collected.

Send it to Tom. His email is tom@newgrounds.com. He takes things like this seriously, so please make sure that all of your information is correct, and that no assumptions have been made.
