Who do they think they're fooling?

They are miffed that AdAware has labeled them a nasty/spyware?

I wonder, how many folks have reported to AdAware:
"Hey! CC is improperly being labeled as a nasty! I installed it and it is only doing what I expected. You made a mistake with this great little utility! Fix your ref file, will ya?"
Not to many, I gather.

Personally, I think that this is a great example of us users growing resistance and awareness of this crap. And it's catching some vendors by surprise.
We don't like it and will not put up with it.
NO amount of spin will fool us.

None quite naturally. But this is a bad thing. People are deferring their intelligence to an application. Now this means if adaware goes corrupt how will the users detect that if adaware goes unchallenged?

Their is no question if adaware wants to consider themselves doing a legitimate job then they MUST have an appeal process. Without such adaware is no different from Dubya scaring up support for itself. Their is no justice produced by calling guilty an innocent man. Their is not even justice from calling a guilty man guilty if their is no evidence to support it.

If they do not legitimately review comet cursor's claims, how can we believe any of their "convictions?"
