if anyone is wondering, Claria Corp is Gator under a new name.

Gator already lost a (many?) lawsuits for this exact same practice (I believe it was triggering competitive ads on the newyork times' website).

Slav, he volunteered to be the adult industry poster boy for self downloading toolbars ...

He wanted to be remembered as one of the industry greats ... you know like Seth, Xpics, Cohen etc

Claria Corp aka Gator are huge - some 35-45 million installations world wide... I have seen lists where they break it down by country - some countries have a large % of the computers online "infected" with Claria Corp ware.

A friend asked me to take a look at his PC because it was running slow as hell, low and behold he's got more spy/adware than I could believe.

The real nasty one's where by:
Gator
Claria
n-Case
180Solutions

Those hijacking bastards should be shot with shit if you ask me.

Here's my idea...

come up with a white knight download that quite simply disables gator. use whatever microsoft force download hole of the week is, and force it on every porn surfer each of us sees.

I bet ya we can make a dent in the Gator business model pretty quickly.

Perhaps just a modified hosts that blocks out gator's servers?

Not that I would consider doing this for real or anything...

I know spyware has taken my computer hostage this week.
I even have spybot and Spyware Blaster on my machine and immunized..and the shit still gets on.

I wondered why it was doing all kinds of fucked up things lately.

Actually Ive been having the "boys" work on a toolbar for me...

It removes Hoopers and sends him a message that sez....

"Too bad poster boy....Gonzo just removed your shit from another machine.
Whine,complain, accept it....youve been OWNED!"

There is a point where your shit won't stink any better than his... there is a line.

Getting rid of his shit is " k3w| " after that you are just going down the same shitty road he went.

it's a good idea. Nick will love it. :-)

Alex,
you are not living in the real world.
(I know, you are Canadien and therefore not much versed in USA history)

FYI,
George Washington was:
TRAITOR worth of execution on sight
USA Father of the Nation, MOST important man in USA history.

2 questions:
1) how many George Washingtons were out there?
(with descriptions like that they can't be the same person, right?)

2) do you see how OUR shit doesn't smell while theirs smells a lot??????


always drink from the river called FACTS and follow the historical perspectives
;-)))
