sneaky spying Gator
said by lincolngreen:
It made me sick to read this thread, I just wanted to throw my machine away and forget about the web, then I thought why should these**^^*^** win.

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.
