How idiotic can you get....????
They peddle their anti-spyware software but don't know the "definition of spyware" yet??? How rediculous is that? It's easy folks:

ANY SOFTWARE that installs itself without my knowledge

ANY SOFTWARE that collects user data and sends it somewhere

ANY SOFTWARE that slows down my computer and eats up my bandwidth without being useful to me in any way

is spyware. How hard is that? Do they really have to go to bed with all the advertising companies out there and *decide* on what spyware is? How about WE, the USERS get to decide for once?? Wouldn't that be a novel idea for once?
