I hope they get nailed. I turned them into the FTC today.

Here is some good news I found online:
FTC- Spam/Spyware (http://www.ftc.gov/opa/2004/10/spamconference.htm)

Also this article on Yahoo news:
Yahoo! (http://news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=story&u=/washpost/20041013/tc_washpost/a27637_2004oct12)

And this CNet article:
CNet (http://news.com.com/From+spam+king+to+spy+master/2100-1032_3-5406348.html)

Lets make these bastards pay :mad:

"The defendants were selling software to fix the problem they just caused. I've decided this is my definition of online chutzpah," Lydia Parnes, acting director of the FTC's Bureau of Consumer Protection, said at a press conference Tuesday.

How big of a corporation is Ezboard anyways? Think they will go after them?

I dont know, but we shall see!

It will probably take until next week to hear something back from the FTC.

But they are cracking down on such problems, so hopefully they will get it next. No more excuses now....
