Scumware 3.0: PersonalWeb from Claria (Gator)

Apparently people aren't dumb enough to download spyware polluted wallets and weather utilities anymore, so the renamed-but-unreformed clowns at Claria (formerly Gator) now want to enlist major website publishers to help them do their dirty work.

As the article reports, Claria wants to spy on more than 3x the 40M+ users it has already contaminated, and needs some help to do it. Let's hope there is a clear and loud cry against any publisher that colludes in this scheme.
