Well, it sends "non-personally identifiable information", so it is spyware as long as it sends info from the computer to the servers, even if they are just urls...

RE: Freemoticons
You guys seem to forget the hard work that gets put into these emoticons.

Dwergs makes plenty off mess.be eg the downloads section, etc..

myemo.com you have to pay for.

emoinstaller is free but comes with adware.

It is removable with 3 clicks.

You also seem to forget the msgplus sponsorship program.

I use emoinstaller but I removed the adware with 3 clicks. Saved me adding all the ipb emo's to my msn.

Also I don't see the point in emoticon fonts :|

1. Yes, the adware has always been in the invision pack, you didn't notice it because it does almost fuck all
2. The adware is fuck all, oh noes, 2 ads every 24 hours
3. its piss easy to remove
4. The author works his ass off on these things and deserves something in return (not a load of girly insults about his software)
