Pop-up issue

Be advised that there is shit out there that AdAware doesn't get rid of, even if it finds it. I had to buy a program called Pest Patrol in order to get rid of one of those stinking "client" programs whose sole job is to download more trojan-like adware. I just can't remember what it was called anymore, but it was fucking horrible. Took me 24 hours to eradicate it.

Why the hell isn't it illegal to write shit like that? Can we sue the advertisers whose windows pop up as a result of this adware virus activity?
