AdWare from an update

Could someone please explain how, after downloading the latest update for extreme game leagues (Which, if I remember correctly was a "regulated" channel), I now have 5 new icons on my desktops for advertising everything from porn to virus protection to privacy protection..? It wasnt there when I opened the game, I didnt leave the original channel it loaded, So Im inclined to believe the update download was the cause. If this is true, then sadly, I will no longer be playing subspace.. I have McAfees systems up and running so I highly doubt that it was just a random upload from an illegal source... any explainations?

 

 

Highly Irritated but giving the benifit of the doubt,

Cayman
