   Thats kind of the wrong direction from what we have been reading and all hoping for in eliminating spam. Man I hate Gator, and Gator Style stuff.

   There's always an option to use operating systems where spyware like this either doesn't work or doesn't exist. But then again, there might be cases where some things won't work without this spyware.

   Man this is horrible, why do people think this is legal, or good? I would imagine that they get bombarded with this stuff to, and probably don't like it. What is wrong with these people? I guess we need to start sending them even more spam and nonsense.Then maybe they can try to get it overturned like in Roe vs. Wade, where the lady is trying to get abortion made illegal again after she had a trial to make it legal so many years ago.

[/b][/quote]It's true you could use another OS but you can't blame Windows either, the only reason other OS do not suffer from spyware is because they are not the common denominator at which spammers like Gator target.
