Yahoo's Anti-Spy Does Not Include Adware in Default
June 3, 2004
eWeek has reported that Yahoo is playing favorites with adware companies by not including adware as a default in Anti-Spy, a new beta feature on Yahoo's toolbar. According to eWeek, users who want to remove adware as well as spyware with the new toolbar, "must check a box each time they conduct a scan." While some people defend adware and claim it is different from spyware, many anti-spyware experts and privacy activists dot not see much of a difference.
