"The U.S. Federal Trade Commission on Thursday asked a federal court to shut down an operation that it said disables users' computers in an attempt to bully them into buying anti-spyware products"

This just happened to my computer today. The spyware deactivated my pop up blocker and put about 25 porn site links on it and a porn dialler. All the pop ups that came up were to advertise for anti spyware programs. Thank god for Spybot: Search and Destroy and norton's GO BacK. I just bought this computer last week I dont want it screwed up already

I hate spyware!!!
