Very interesting. How do you filter adware on a surfer's machine? I'd like some of that.
What I'm trying to say is that dealing with spam on average costs webmasters more money than they potentially lose in sales from Zango - unless they are very well established and spend little time on their computer or don't care whether they miss emails - which is less than 3% of GFY.

Also, spyware relies on user retardation. If we teach surfers, they will not be installing it. Yet no one can escape spam.
