    Ok. I was reading my CPU magazine and came across Alex St. Johns monthly column. Entitled "Spyware 3.0". Alex was one of the founding creators of DirectX and presidant and CEO of WildTangent. The first two paragraphs are spent discussing his battle to clear the name of wildtangent from the spyware category. I was wondering what your all veiws are. The rest of the article is spent discussing how windows was not designed with software unistallation in mind. I think its a really good article, and would reccomend picking it up.

    My views are a reputable company with a privacy policy, like theirs, should be trusted. You also delete piles of cookies that are not spyware. Big crock. Theres a lot of cookies removed that need not be, but its good to clean up regulalry.

    Funny this from the same people who cant remove the latest Cool Web Search hijack thats been out for a month or so. If my anti virus failed to remove a wildly spreading, nasty virus, they would lose my business. Alex should write that into his article.
