Ad Aware doesnt get rid of pop ups, did you read the description of the software while it was downloading? It deletes spyware and tracking software Like Savenow, which is installed by *ahem bareshare... it follows what sites you go to and depending on those sites, pops certain targeted traffic (or so Ive heard),...well Sextracker, we KNOW what that does hahaha... Adaware finds and deletes spy programs that attatch themselves to different areas and processes of your system, if you have Savenow on your system, you can gaurantee, thats some of the "lag" you get while surfing,... fuck brearshare.... and that purple Bonzi motherfucking spyware motherfuck. Run adaware daily...eh if I rambled sorry, gettin late...

seems like you have stepped over the barrier between a porn surfer, and a porn webmaster, didn´t you? <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="biggrin.gif" /> Gator is a piece of spying shit. It logs your surfing habits, and sends all info to their servers. They say, they sell only aggregate numbers but who knows. Get rid of it. Same goes to cursor comet, and aureate. I do not use / know anything about SaveNow. Cookies are ok, but some people want to screw other webmasters so they put it in the same row which is completely wrong. You must close all windows BEFORE removing it, then restart computer. That shit stays in memory, and reinstall itself again.

Cydoor is a marketing program for putting adverts into your shareware programs which you have downloaded...also in programs like kazaa and morpheus. Its not in itself harmful but it does raise questions of privacy for the owners of the computers. laters, Chris

I came across this gator type program RoboForm. It works better than Gator and doesn't spy on you. I just downloaded it yesterday, and it seems to work pretty well. I don't really use form fillers that often, but I can see how it'd be useful. <a href="http://www.findnrank.com/roboform.exe" target="_blank">http://www.findnrank.com/roboform.exe</a>

I do not have spare time at the moment but I bet, if you go through sites I have already suggested, you can download client-side javascript which detects some of these spies. Then you are able to redirect these visitors to a special page, and educate these surfers (threaten them by denying access to your site). You can rewrite it, and make it server side. -*-*- Roboform is an excellent solution (as it was suggested many times).

Less setup, I believe. And then just set your firewall so that Gator can't call home <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="smile.gif" /> Easy!
