Gator Forces Site To Remove 'Spyware' Label
lurker412 writes "CNet News is reporting that Gator has forced PC Pitstop to remove Web pages that call Gator's software 'spyware.' The correct term, according to Gator, is 'adware.' The article states: 'If we find anyone publicly calling us spyware, we correct it and take action if necessary,' said Scott Eagle, Gator's senior vice president of marketing. So be careful what you say in your comments..."

Here is some lovely shitware for you, sir. I sincerely hope you enjoy it.
A bit like these beautiful ladies!

Creationists are a lot like zombies. Slow, but powerful and numerous. And they all want to eat our brains.
This story is boring. I'd rather view hot lesbians frigging each other in the minge. But hey, maybe I'm just too damn heterosexual for Slashdot.
Masturbate, it work for me to pass the time. Don't forget to stretch or slap it around a bit before you get down to business so as to avoid injury to junior, it's a common mistake.

And to make sure this post is not modded offtopic...
Secret to getting a high mod on slashdot: just bash windows, no matter how little it has to do with the topic at hand.
If they don't have a foot to stand on, then they're sitting in their crap, right?
One line blog. I hear that they're called Twitters now.
Not only is he/she an idiot, he/she is also a coward. (albeit an anonymous one) ... and so are you.
It's funny that you mention this. I actually would like a program that provides the functionality of Weatherbug but all of them seem to be spyware. Can anyone help? (and yes, I know I could just go to any decent weather site, but I like being able to see it in the system tray. Not to mention I'm lazy).
