IMVU staff have a rule in their TOS (Terms Of Service) called "Guilty By Association". Basically, if your location or personal data they find on your computer is similar / equal to another user who has broken their rules ... then they also find you guilty "by association".

The mafia clients have all of the location tracking spyware stripped from their code. IMVU staff use spyware in the official client to track your location, steal your info, and spy on your computer. They then use this information to decide if you are "Guilty By Association". While the mafia clients protect you against this when you log into the client, it does not protect you when you log into the IMVU website ... which is also running similar spyware code.

To protect yourself when logging into the IMVU website, you need to run script blockers: viewtopic.php?f=2&t=11040
