Ok now i suppose this as been discussed but I am a bit slow... Got a new laptop and been surfing and managed to get some lovely spyware on my computer..

So I type in www.mensniche.com and when I do popups for other pill companies come up.. Now surely this isn't right.

Its like the thing with overture when Viagra demanded they was no1 as its a trademark... what do u guys think?

That's crazy! You should let the people at mensniche know about it. After you use Adaware or whatever, use this Bazooka

This has found things that Adaware has missed before and its free. It also tells you exactly whats on your pc, and what it does, and what company its from. Got good reviews on download.com. Check it out.

well it happens on any of the sites... just wondered if officially illegal?

And i think peeps at mensniche might know, see my sig ;)

Spyware sucks. It should be made a serious crime.

i think you aanswered your own question, you should trademark mensniche, gives you a lot more power when it comes to fighting things like that.

you just awoke to the scourge of spyware? i hope they all die painful slow deaths, it should be a serious crime and there is legislation coming but as of now it's not a crime. but civil litigation - woohoooo - that is a bonanza some smart lawyers are gonna jump on and reap hundreds of millions.

spyware cost me my main computer for 3 days, a ton of aggravation and a 300 dollar repair bill. i'm still getting the shit and it's not just coming in through IE - i think ICQ Lite is full of holes to be exploited.

im guessing the spyware probably gives you popups according to what keywords the webpage has.
