Well done to 180solutions for doing its bit to combat the growing problem of spyware. But you have to wonder how they didn't spot this before.

Getting people to accept spyware on their PCs is a major sales challenge, a real selling-fridges-to-Eskimos dilemma. If someone's very successful at it the supplier has a duty to check that they're performing in an ethical manner.

They could also think again about their payment model, which almost invites the fraudulent.

Do you agree?
