Ramblings, opinions, and general meanderings from the Deep South

Digital rights online? Now there's a joke.

If you own or use a computer (hint: you do, hey, you're here!) stop reading this post and go read the article that will be in the July 2005 issue of PCWorld. That's right, just click on the link PCWorld. It's short, to the point and has information you need. Close the page when through reading and you'll be back here.

Now you understand why running just ONE type of spyware protection won't work. Right? The greasy, grimey, slimey at Claria and WhenU are people that are sneaking stuff on your computer. Claria is the "company" that created Gator, Weatherbug or whatever they call it today, Precision Time, some POS calendar and other such goodies. WhenU is no better. Claria spends a lot of time and money trying to suppress small people like this blog from telling the truth about their invasive crap. Weenies, yes weenies.

Love Lavasoft's Ad-aware. But it won't do the job alone. They gave in to the desist thangy these jerks are doing. Ad-aware will not remove all spyware or malware or dungware. Call it whatever you want. You have to update and run Spybot Search & Destroy, JavaCoolSoftware's Spywareblaster, etc., in order to filter out all this trash. One of the problems is a sleaze "company" like Claria strong arming all these anti-spyware companies and then they roll over like a wimpyass dog and take it. The people that sneak or force stuff on your PC without making it clear are GOONS!

Next time you decide to Yahoo please remember that Claria has bragged about 31% of their profits come from the idiots at Yahoo. Now I must go take my medication. That is all, for now.
