    Can I just ask, is this legal

    http://darkfx.co.uk/GetBack/frameset/home.html

    I just want to know before I launch it. Basically, it allows victims of viruses, adware, spyware, etc. to get back at the advertising companies and creators or what-have-you. Morally, I think it's great as I am always targetted by adware. Legally, however, I'm not quite sure.

    If it's not legal, or questionable, I can remove it at once.

    Many thanks :)

    I would probably stay away from phone numbers, but I would think it would be ok for people to post thier input on the companies software. After all it is a persons opinion. If the site becomes popular, people will see it and start to avoid it like the plaque. Loss of money for thier product is the key and bad press does wonders to achieve that:cool:

    I find it kind of funny that a site complaining about ad(ware)s, has ads on their site ;)


    Other than that.. I don't see whats wrong with it.
