Hi again folks.
The whole 'spyware'/'adware' issue is being discussed, and solutions being
sought on the Steve Gibson news server. Have a look at news.grc.com for a
list of NGs. There are also a number of sites carrying listings of known
spy/ad ware and 'phone-home' programs available. One that comes to mind is a
link at Seigesoft (check spelling). For those interested, there is a
comprehensive listing of ad servers available here:

Another good source of information is here:

Cheers,
Gryph

VisualRoute is another violator of privacy, forwarding your
serial number on app start. I think it would be prudent to start a summary
listing, may I suggest we start one here.
