Spammers, Scammers, and Gator
I'd put companies like Gator who install their garbageware on Net users' computers on the same short list with people who run offshore pyramid schemes, boiler room stock market operations which bilk the elderly out of their life savings, and the used-car dealers who roll back odometers. And I think most people feel the same way. If this is a trial by jury, they have a snowball in hell's chance of winning here.
