Just an fyi, here is an A to Z list of all the 'known' software to harbor the offending scripts: http://www.alphalink.com.au/~johnf/dspypdf.html
(scroll to bottom of page)

CuteFTP is on the list, just one of the programs many of us webmasters use. *Sigh*

Also, you can go here and download a small program that will find all offending scripts in your computer and purge them: http://www.webattack.com/get/adaware.shtml

It seems that the Internet Advertising Bureau board of directors is considering a lawsuit against gator.com....article here: http://www.newsbytes.com/news/01/169264.html

Also, as a side note....there is a small script some of you might want to add to your sites to deactivate 'toptext': http://www.ipagedir.com/ezula/deactivate.toptext.htm

Of course eventually, companies will come up with a way around the script....but it does work for now.

I wish us ALL luck on this one.
