I just discovered the fact that both mopheus and kazaa are using spy ware. My suggestion is to delete them at once then do a search on your computer for BDE and delete the results. just a warning to you all be careful.

Funny, I was going to download it in a few hours so I could try to get some Rockman EXE episodes...


So much for that.

I have software that lets me block such signals to and from my computer. With all the stuff I have, the cops would give their guns for 5 minutes on my hard drive.:ooh:

the spyware doesn't harm your computer. i saw an article about this on yahoo not too long ago, and all it does is track what websites you go to and send them off to some business. it is just a study, and nothing will harm you or your computer.

Morpheus prides itself in not using spyware.

Perhaps they are lying. It doesnt bother me though.

Maybe that explains those stupid pop ups that say "YOU ARE BEING WATCHED" blah blah blah and have screen shots of my C:\ drive folders.

No, that's called an inline frame that links to your c drive.
You of all people I figured would be intelligent enough to figure that out TSA.... As much of a web expert you like to try to be at times.

Type this up into an HTML document then load it, see what happens.

Spyware does nothing close, nothing that can harm you computer in any way... Big Deal.

I guess playing along with something makes a person dumb, eh?
