Spywareinfo and Computercops...are they down?

so this is more like a war than just a one time fight for control!!!

 

Hi little eagle

unfortunately it is

Couldn't have said it any better than Paul did, commercial gain is the culprit here.

Cheers,

I hope you open a can on them!

Good luck!

From what is going on, i suspect that either a virus is behind the attack, or.......... a spyware company is attacking the websites. I think a spyware company is behind the attack, most probably because they are attempting to stop people from finding help and solutions to get rid of their spyware products. I think they will target anti-spyware websites. Why? Because they don't want people to get help on how to get rid of spyware. Also, why would spywareinfoforum.com and a few other websites be targeted? Because they are anti-spyware websites. The spyware companies might be doing this to get revenge on the websites that have been helping people to get rid of spyware for so many years.
Who will be the next target of the attack? No one knows. I can only say that right now, the biggest war might just be starting soon............. the biggest war against spyware. The people/companies who made all the spyware crap will not stop this war until they win. The spyware baddies might be getting ready to counter-attack all the anti-spyware heroes.

To all the spyware baddies i have a message for u:"You guys have gone too far already, u invade people's privacy and collect personal information which is confidential.
For a very long time already, i have seen what spyware has caused and how terrible it is. Right now, u rotten eggs have went so far as to attack the good guys who have helped people get rid of spyware. You guys want to earn money through advertising and collecting people's personal private information. Well, u baddies had better wake up and realise ur terrible mistake. Wanna earn money? Then stop making more terrible spyware and do something good. Advertising and collecting private information is wrong. If i want to know my friend's private information, i ask him first. U spyware baddies can't stop ur craving hunger for people's personal private information? And u even create pornographic websites that contain spyware and viruses. U spyware baddies are damn sick in ur mind i think. THIS IS TOO MUCH!!! If u baddies want to fight with us good guys, u better think twice. U BAD GUYS WILL BE PUNISHED FOR WHAT U HAVE DONE. One day when all your crimes have been exposed, u spyware baddies will be DOOMED! I feel that u guys have to be punished for your terrible crime. You collect people's personal private information through unscruplous means and ways, and you also deceive people into installing your nasty spyware products by disguising your spyware products as though they were good and innocent products. U baddies will never win us(the good guys).
EVIL NEVER WINS.

 

If the spyware folks are behind this it is possible they might be shooting themselves in the foot. DDOSing a consumer advocate group will be seen by the public as an overtly malicious act. Consumers may, as a result, become more aware of and more annoyed about spyware.

The fairy tale ending to all of this would be a consumer backlash - customers boycotting products containing spyware. The longer the attack on spywareinfo, the better the effect, assuming it gets attention in the media.

I would contact Hal Fishman KTLA in Los Angeles. He loves stories like this. If someone wants me to email him, please give me all the sites affected, some facts about the sites, the principles behind the sites and I will write something up to him, which should attract his attention. And also the dates of attacts and current situation.
