The Twisting Tale of Messenger Skinner

[ronjor]

{QUOTE-> Upon hearing bad reports about a product called "Messenger Skinner", we decided to investigate. The program (whose target audience must strongly favour kids by virtue of the fact that the most entertaining thing it gives you is dancing bananas) has a number of issues that make it something I'd rather not recommend. Note:

"Messenger Skinner is free of any kind of spyware or trojan".

Interesting statement. Let's continue. <-QUOTE}Article (http://blog.spywareguide.com/2007/09/the_twisting_tale_of_messenger.html)

The ONLY software that I completely trust are those I wrote. 8)

My daughters use this computer mostly for the messenger, and I "harp" them on proper use of it. Blank stares are what I usually get. Thanks for the visual-aids that I can show to them that I don't make this stuff up, although after reading the article I'm having a hard time believing it! WOW:o
