Just freakin use the FREE zonelab or don't install the damn thing! Sheeeesh, why make such a big deal out of it? I have my system set up so that no cookie enters my system without my knowledge, and zonelabs (which I bought because it's that good) keeps people out that don't belong, and keeps my system from going out to other servers. I doubt very much if it is spyware to capture warez people, why not wait until they answer your emails...or...is it possible I am the only one who actually emailed them to ask them why they did this? Let's see, I think I'll just figure everyone who complains about this has a warez copy of Poser, I won't give anyone the benefit of the doubt, I'll just fly off the handle and get everyone all excited about it. Just ask, find out before you start with the accusations. Marque
