I am waiting for someone to take legal action against redirector malware companies. I remember when this stuff first came out (and Oprano member was near the front on this), changing the hosts files to redirect surfers from one site to another. Now it is done in much more sophisticaed ways, but the end result is the same. You type "thissite.com" in your address bar, and you end up at "thatsite.com" instead.
Anything that is installed by using trojans, back doors, security holes, and whatnot to autointall without the end user's knowledge fails the stink test. Those who profit from it are not long for the business... even the government is coming for your asses.
