[Coco] [Color Computer] RE: Getting CoCo ads on Gnutella

[Stephen Blunt]

You could be right. I've cleaned up a lot of pcs for people at work and all
their systems are heavily infected with spy/adware. Limewire was the culprit
- but it may have been  stuff obtained through limewire rather then limewire
itself. I apologize if I hurt anyone's feelings.

I use spybot S&D, Ad-aware by lavasoft, Spywareblaster (for activex) and
Mcafee 2005, for dealing with the nasties.
