I hope Morpheus isn't taking this time to install spyware. And why
are they calling it "preview?"
Hey, KaZaa users didn't seem to mind (mostly because they didn't know until it was too late.)
I find it interesting that Morpheus only alloww transfers of mp3s with a bitrate of 128 or less. And in the FAQ, they pose the question "Why Don't you Allow Transfers of mp3s with a bitrate higher than 128?" But the FAQ skips the question. Goes right from question 2 to question 4. Hmmmmm.

What's spy ware?
Spyware is a "trojan horse" program hidden in a real program that
watches what you do and every so often sends messages to the company
that made the software. It might be innocent stuff like what kinds of
things you download (so they can spam you for effeciently, or so they
can pass your name onto Metallica/Doctor Dre and other branches of the
Federal Gubmint.) But it might also be not-so innocent things like
credit card numbers, passwords, whether or not your WinXP is a legit,
activated copy or a serial cracked bootleg copy.
And because you never know the shadowy program running in the
background is reporting back to its dark masters, spyware is not a
good thing. Check out
www.scumware.com
for some of the nastier examples of spyware.
Also most spyware can be discovered and neutralized with
software like "AdAware" or Moosofts "The Cleaner".
Hope this helps.
I use audiogalaxy. Does that have spy ware?
Yes, I think audiogalaxy gas some spyware, but not as bad as Limewire
or KaZaa.

Limewire too!? Crap, I use Limewire on my computer at my office. That
can't be good. Guess I should look into this "AdAware" - how does this
guy work?
