Another Day, Another Dubious Zango Install Found
from the cleaning-right-up,-huh? dept
Someone anonymous submits: "Since the FTC fined Zango, there's been a dubious install or webpage related to the adware company found every day, from fake YouTube clips to trojans that install links to Zango videos in the start menu. The latest Zango find has emerged, in the form of a trojan that deposits numerous Zango domains into the PC's trusted zone. At this point I have to question if there was even any point bothering to fine these guys. Also, as the article points out, security researcher Ben Edelman still has to publish HIS findings on Zango...!" While we understand that cleaning up this mess was unlikely to happen overnight, this still seems pretty bad.

Then why don't we just take 'em out back....
How can people allow this to continue to happen. There needs to be a clause put into the DMCA to get these people's servers shut down on complaint.
Simple.

Make it criminal
There are always going to be scum bugs trying to rip off the average guy. And If I had my choice of scum bag who should be in federal ass pounding prison, it would be those Enron dirt bags.
