Wow, I'm really surprised by this. I remember hearing about something like this - using people's processing power - to help in medical research and stuff like that. But that was only if you wanted to, you'd have to sign up somewhere and specifically say you wanted to help.

It's nothing like this, where the bastards actually put in on your computer without you knowing. I realise that they said theat they aren't going to do it without the user's permission, but I still reckon it shouldn't be allowed. How many times has something just popped up on your screen and you click OK or NEXT or whatever. I always do. What if someone doesn't read it properly and just accepts. I realise that it's their own fault then, but they can't be the only ones to blame. They wouldn't expect something like this without them signing up for it.

I think it's wrong - these people are evil!!! It should be stopped.
