That's amazing. Soon they'll have a sales pitch. "Install our spyware, we'll remove most of the other spyware on your computer!"

I hope they spend all their profits suing each other. Couldn't happen to a nicer bunch of scumbags.

There Can Be Only One!
I second that completely. These guys can cry me a river. :P
One can only hope that future Spyware goes around ripping each other's guts out from the afflicted PCs...there'd be less problems to fix when we get around to Spybot/Ad-Aware-ing the PC. |

On one hand, I'm happy to see spyware companies fighting amongst themselves. That means they'll have less resources to try to thwart Ad-Aware, Spybot, etc.
On the other hand, a spyware battle fought on a user's desktop is likely to get bloody. I'm not sure I'd trust Direct Revenue to cleanly remove Avenue Media's spyware or vice versa. Of course, I wouldn't let either on my system to begin with.

Re: Mixed reaction
It also means an arms race is probably beginning. Adware and spyware writers will make their products increasingly harder to remove--by anyone including Ad-Aware, Spybot, or any other spyware-writing-scumbag out there who wants to cheese off the other guy.
Yes, for me, the glass is always half empty. . .

I thought spyware got installed without your knowledge or consent, hense the "Spy" part of spyware. Like I would agree to installing the P.O.S. in the first place.
