Just came to think of it...
Is those "helpfull" pup-up "Spyware" programs,
who offer free scans (and put a lot of damage files on your PC, have I read) still operating?

Or are they banned by law?

I remember last year on a page, where I used to send eCards
- 123 Greetings... There came all the time a pup up from, yes was it Driver Cleaner -
do not quite remember it.

And I`ve read that there is similar fake programs, who make more damage then good.

But are they really still around? And what are their names -
Not because I want to try them, I just wondered if they was not stopped yet mad.gif or what

Have a fine evening

Yes, they are still around and adding/changing names quite frequently. You will find most of them included on the Rogue List.
