    emoticons spyware??

     
    is this spyware??

    http://www.smileycentral.com/index_o...r=ZSYYYYYYBCUS

    looks like it to me because it plainly says "Comes with FREE MyWebSearch accessible directly from your browser, plus SEARCH ASSISTANT - relevant search results in response to misspelled or incorrectly formatted browser address requests."

    a friend wants me to DL it, lol...but I am way scared.

    she said she ran adaware and it was clean....?

    on the bottom of that site it says "no spyware, no adware"




    I just cant see me adding a search toolbar of any sort after the thousands of spywares I have removes from other peoples systems, lol




    any good CLEAN emoticon progs out there?


    thanks, JP

    Both MyWebSearch and Search Assistant are heinously disruptive adware programs that are sure to cause some gnashing of your teeth.

    Run away, quickly.

    what exactly are you trying to accomplish?

    free emoticon software.... for what?
    What are you trying to insert emoticons into?
