Why is Weatherbug full of spyware?

i have a friend who has paid for weatherbug, and he insists that that takes out the spyware, so l loaded ad-aware on his machine and found that all the spyware is still there. it seems that the main .exe is considered spyware also. has anybody else had this experience? is ad-aware correct?
 
I don't know about the spyware bob332, but I've tried 3 different computers and still can load Weatherbug successfully 🙁
 
Mmm... I use Weatherbug and haven't noticed any "spyware" problems. As a matter of fact, I hardly get any pop-ups or banner ads, and only about 2 or 3 spams a week. What am I doing wrong? Should I disable all my safeguards? I need something trivial to worry about. What can I do to experience the evil of Weatherbug? 😉
