Re: WMP Adware: A Case Study in Deception

>> In retrospect, it all looks like a high-tech game of "telephone."
Exactly, and that was my point in my original post. I certainly wasn't trying to "throw cold water" on the story, and please note that as soon as I heard that a sample file existed I contacted you to get a copy so I could do my own tests.

I do wish the larger sites would pick up on the real story, which is important and which people like you and Ben and Andrew and Suzi and me have dug out the hard way. But I guess that isn't sexy enough.
