It's time that our governments take spyware and

companies like 180solutions serious. 180solutions

installs software that spies on youand collect a

lot of private data on users. Mostof the software

is installed after the user allows installation

because they "simply" overlooked the disclaimer.

In my view, every type of software that collects

data on its user is "unwanted" and should not be

allowed. In Europe there are people (politicians)

who are working on laws against spyware. Hooorah!

I'll sing the day that this really takes place!

A big PLUS for Zonelabs that they have the courage

to stand up against companies like 180solutions

who are nothing more than a soft version of cyber

criminals.

P.s. I weekly remove hundreds of spyware, trojans

from PC's and 180solutions is totally unwanted by

every of my friends!!!
