Adware Firm 180Solutions Admits Error, Apologizes
From the article
180solutions, the controversial adware marketer admitted last week that it was initially unable to identify the rogue affiliate that was installing its Zango software illegally, and in fact found a pair of sites adding Zango to PCs without users’ consent.
“As it turns out, we didn’t get Mr. Edelman’s guy on Monday. The guy we got on Monday, ‘Sniper84,’ was also installing our software in the same unauthorized manner,” wrote Ken Smith, co-founder and chief technology officer of Bellevue, Wash.-based 180.
