SpywareInfo

Have I mentioned lately what a great resource SpywareInfo is? And how great their newsletter is? Heck just in this week’s newsletter you will find full articles about Direcway using remote access to their customers machines to run ads, a full review of Mailwasher Pro, including a discount, a plea to turn off bouncing of virus emails, since they use spoofed from addresses, the Google toolbar automatic updates and word that they may be coming out with an option that you can turn off. (Let’s hope so, since I found out about the automatic updates after I had already suggested everyone at work install it, and I really don’t like having automatic updates done on my network!)

All of that in one issue of a free newsletter!
