This type of advertising technique says a lot about the company that came up with it. They are obviously trying to demonstrate a point; that it is easy enough for hackers to get control of your computer. What they are doing should be illegal.

I too have to run Ad-Aware and Spy Bot and NAV just to use the internet, but we shouldn't have to. It's bad enough that there are malicious people out there that get their jollies by annonymously messing with people's computers. We don't need "advertising terrorism" making it any worse.

Who are these people? I'd like to pay them a visit.
