I doubt they'd lose a lawsuit, most likely settle like the folks at Gator did years back.
It's not just for spyware though. There will be a big round of lawsuits coming against companies that have ads on torrent sites that have pirated music and movies available. It's one thing to get sued by another porn company, it's another to be sued by the RIAA or big entertainment companies.
I think you're going to see a drastic change in the landscape of internet advertising (both adult and mainstream) by this time next year. Advertisers are going to be held responsible by the courts for where their ads are seen.
