I am so sick and tired of spyware, viruses and third party tracking
cookies that I finally got around to writing an article about it.
This is out of control. Little buddies for the kids to download, THE
KIDS, tracking cookies from major Web sites that are suposed to be
used for the sites to help us remember passwords, etc, being used by
third party ad firms to watch us. Worse yet, they are soooo greedy,
that a brand new computer, just weeks old, with high speed access is
as slow as a dial up on a ancient computer.

No child should be able to download this crap, AND if they just
weren't so greedy nobody would care. Some of the ones I have found I
do not want to risk naming in a public forum, but if you have enough
at stake to email ne directly I will share it but deny I did it.
