As you have been told time and again, there is no "spyware" downloaded from here. Any belief to the contrary is a figment of your imagination. JAVA downloads come from java.com (Oracle), not iHub. Whether you choose to believe that or not is your business and from our perspective irrelevant. It is entirely possible that you download a java exploit from another site after installing JAVA, but that is not something with which we can assist you. If you do not want to use JAVA you can use the HTML5 variants of the streaming data pages.

After this download background commercials and miscellaneous audio began playing on my PC.

Totally different issue. Two, in fact.

First issue: Those are called popunder ads, and have been there all along. You may see them because they are behind other windows until you move or close those windows. Hence the term "popunders."

The second issue: Most of our ads come from Google's ad network, though some come from a variety of other ad networks. Occasionally, an auto-play-with-sound-enabled ad will sneak into the mix. We do not control that, but if we are provided with a screen shot of the ad and preferably the landing URL of where the ad goes, we can try to get it removed from the source network's feed. However, we cannot do anything with a generic complaint of "miscellaneous audio began playing on my PC."
