    comet cursor must die

    comet cursor

    grr. I've hit two sites this week alone that installed that shit on me. They throw shit on the desktop, in the taksbar, and programs list. AS WELL AS - dropping a new line in my Web Browser. GRRRRRRR

        can you give me an example site? what do they do exactly, prompt you to install it in a misleading way, or?

            oh no - it installs and then tells you that it has installed. it's a service for webmasters - to allow them to have their own "cute" cursor.

                set your internet settings to ask before installing anything via active-x.. still annoying to hit "no" but at least you wont have to go around deleting stuff.

                  comet cursor is actually spyware in disguise. I read a big article on this and also adaware had a nice piece on this.If ad-aware says its bad then it must be shitty..

                      That thing drives me fucking crazy. It seems like most people that are using it are on geocities, etc. Strictly a newbie thing in my opinion.
