Unwanted advertising software or "adware" has evolved from an annoyance into a serious threat to the future of Internet.

Once installed, the programs bog down the computers' normal functions, deluging users with pop-up advertisements, creating privacy and security risks, and generally diminishing the quality of the online experience.
Some users simply give up on the Internet altogether after their computers are rendered useless by the installation of dozens of unwanted programs.
Although it may be somewhat disguised, it's happening on MySpace, too!
