Something's rotten in Denmark....

[Spudd]

Well, something is very strange about that new VIA support website. I surfed over there earlier after seeing a post about it. I closed the window, and went along surfing to a couple of other sites. Low and behold, my firewall goes nuts and shows a whole crap load of data being uploaded to the internet, without my permission. My firewall caught Internet Explorer continously trying to connect to the net after I hit the Block all traffic button. Mind you, I'd closed down the browser already. The intended destination of IE? www.viaarena.com. Hmmmm.............

Don't you mean something's rotten in the state of denmark?

Anyways, damn, why must so many companies use spyware etc...
They know it pisses off end users, and sure they get money, but they get most of their money from the endusers

Heh. No, I didn't mean "Something's rotten in the state of Denmark." It wasn't meant as a direct quote, just as an allusion which would allow you to infer from the rest of my message that www.viaarena.com seems like a proponent of spyware. What are you, an English major?!

P.S. No offense intended of course, as I have a double major in English Lit. and Political Science.
