i agree and that is exactly what they are doing. They claim to be like a SE, like google. But when people go to google they are indeed looking for search results. When someone clicks a link on my site to a sponsor I am promoting that person is not looking for alternatives. If he didn't want to see that page he would not have clicked the damn link. 180solutions uses zango to sell your traffic. They are not selling traffic they generate, they are selling traffic you paid for. You pay for it, they take it and sell it. Nice business model they get free traffic from newbies who download their crap, and the search assistant is bundled in with it, they have no idea it is there. They don't want pop ups, no one does, but yet zango tries to play it off like the person downloaded this because they wanted it. It is so obsurd it is not even funny.
They have no right to take our traffic and sell it to peope and profit from our traffic. If they want to generate their own traffic then use a damn tool bar feature for that with a search box in it. But don't pop up a page over mine when someone is on my fucking site and then try to play it off like you doing the surfer a service by providing them with alternatives... jesus christ how have they gotten away with this so long.
