And to those that question my "unfounded" accusations of unethical practice by 12 clicks, here's just a small sampling for you to try at home.

First download a copy of hijackthis. Open up the program and scan your registry.

Now, go to one of 12Clicks popup links: http://www.stopannoyingpopups.com

Click on the link on this page.

Now do a new scan on your registry with hijackthis. See the new entries for things like "custom tool bar". This is thanks to the popup "killer" that 12Clicks has just offered you. And, not sure if this is still the case, but it was in the archived version I have of the code from a few months back. The link also used a security exploit to install Wink/nsdlua.

Oh, and the list goes on. So, why do I continue to attack 12Clicks...simple...here's a man that insists on preaching the honest line...all the while when his programs are a success not through clever marketing..but instead through a cheating boiler room technique then ANYONE could copy.
dude, next time, just one tab of acid.
