aggregately, they could be on many of your users computers, but each company would have to have their spyware set up to specifically leach your specific traffic
so while i agree that those companies are scumbags, i think you are exaggerating the issue

Zango's own numbers - 200,000 new users PER DAY, which would be 73 million users per year.
The important thing isn't Zango by itself - but the huge numbers of toolbar and spyware companies out there tagging traffic in various ways.
From 2005:

The numbers are staggering.
