Spam Search

The Inquirer reports that "Researchers Ben Edelman and Hannah Rosenbaum reckon that typing the phrase 'Free Screensavers' into any search engine is the equivalent of lighting a blue touch paper and standing well back." The research shows that more than 64% of sites that are linked to "Free Screensavers" either contain spyware or adware. If you like spyware or adware, just type in those magic words into a search engine and start clicking away. Other words that will return a large list of spamware and adware links include"Bearshare", "Screensavers", "Winmx", "Limewire", "Download Yahoo messenger", and "Free ringtones".
