*smacks his head*  ::)
No wonder all these viruses are spread around the net so fast...

"Here, here... Open this attachment... Click on this banner... You don't know me... You didn't request the information I am sending you... But you REALLY need to check this stuff out..."

Seriously, they should make you have an internet license before they allow you to go out onto the wild wild web... Give you different tests for opening unknown attachments... Or falling for stupid pop-ups and such... Trixy, those internet spammers are...

well when i go to some cites it says you have these spyware on your computer and it didnt happen till i heard pogo had been doin that

Are you talking about the little windows that popup and say you have spyware on your pc? If you are those are just advertisements. They are trying to scare you into buying their spyware software.

Pogo does use cookies to see how long you have been playing what games for, so I guess you could call that spyware. They also tell you about it in their TOS.

I believe it is against the law for them to put spyware on your pc without your knowledge. Besides I use Spybot and no pogo files turn up in the scan.
