Smokey, keep up the good work. You're actually one person who's trying to accomplish something (besides Will!  ). Just be careful, scumware companies have been known to pay forum members to gather information and report back to them. This wouldn't be the first time, and it sure as hell wouldn't be the last. Remember that the best con artist is the one who will have you truly believe he's the nicest and most straightforward guy. Don't get fooled by the book cover!
I'll stay out of these threads from now on.

Seems keeping quiet about it has not worked then.
IMO the way to bring these people down or keep them out of adult is to stay together and make sure using scumware is less profitable. This is done by exposing those who use it to send and receive traffic, educating the surfer, supplying everyone with information.
Fighting it in the background clearly does not work, because the moment you are effective the scumware guys will see you anyway. And combat you.
Is it easier to fight one or 100?
Is it harder to sell the traffic if they know we are actively educating the surfer, naming the sponsors and have 1,000s against them?
