The concept of software developers coming up with Viruses and other malicious code has always interested me, I normally have put it down to paranoid conspiracy talk and that there are some good programmers out there fighting the evil demons. Saying all this I came across [this] interesting article which is mostly about a spyware "remover tool" called Spyware Cleaner (note: I really wouldn't use it, use Spybot or something), oh and SpyAxe (again, stay away!). This provides a really interesting discussion and really just puts across good evidence about these companies engaging in some rather dodgy buisness practices. If you want to know more about safe computing take a look at [this] article off the [PC-Pals] forum - some of the info is probably a little outdated but the core ideas and ethos you should have towards computing do not change over time!
