Spybot

I have been using Spybot - Search and Destroy since its creation. Its a
great spyware removal tools, but recently i notices that it indeed comes
with spywares.

Don't get me wrong, it's a good s/w but people should start doing their bits
by donating a dollar or two. after all, everyone uses this newsgroup uses
spybot-search and destroy.

What proof do you have that it comes with spyware? I've used it on
multiple machines and haven't seen anysign of that, but you are correct
in that folks should loosen the purse strings and slip the author some
cash.
