I have to agree as well. This little piece of software
is pure BS.. What's funny is two days ago my DSL (and
dialup) provider went out for a few hours.. I loaded
up Netzero as a backup, and afterwards uninstalled
when my normal services returned. I noticed that from
my Netzero install, that stupid "surfplus" (or what
ever) kept popping up on my browser each time it was
opened.. I was like "WHAT THE HELL" did they install
on my system without so much as giving me the option.
At the time I had no idea this software was doing
these little tricks, as I quickly removed it from my
system.. Now I'm just plain pissed!

Solution: We can all do what EZula did - make our web
pages and all text, NOTHING but graphics.. hehehe... I
think that's funny, they actually setup their site
with all graphics to avoid having their own content
highlighted.. hahaha
