- So why did adware evolve?
-
"So why did adware evolve? Unlike viruses, it's not written
by shadowy programmers looking to vandalize the Internet.
Fundamentally, three forces created adware: the failure of
the retail software model for low-priced software, the rise
of peer-to-peer apps, and the rise of cost-per-click
advertising."
Gee and I thought that it was MS's inability to write decent
software (eg IE) that was to blame. It has past the stage
where nobody should use windows for anything private
such as internet banking. - Posted by: Richard Flude Posted on: 08/17/04 You are currently: a Guest | Members login | Terms of Use
