 7Search sues McAfee Siteadvisor over 'spyware' label

said by The Register :
In a case that could tie the hands of companies trying to protect their customers from internet threats, a website owner with past ties to a notorious piece of spyware has filed a lawsuit claiming it is being unfairly maligned by warnings from McAfee that the site poses a risk to its customers.

Here we go again with adware/spyware companies suing anti-
spyware sites. If this goes like any of the previous cases,
it will get thrown out of court.
