Couldn't have said it any better than that! - First we had sneaky Gator, now we got sneaky Yahoo. Perhaps sneaky PestPatrol too? According to this article: »www.eweek.com/article2/0,1759,1605589,00.asp (The distinction between spyware and adware is determined by the vendor, PestPatrol).:( - Since GAIN(Gator) is classified as adware by PestPatrol, GAIN is NOT INCLUDED in the scan by Yahoo. - Here is my challenge to PestPatrol: If you got the balls, change your classification of GAIN from adware to spyware!!! Thereby forcing all GAIN(gator) stuff to be found on peoples computers. - |
