There is something you can do to prevent CC from downloading on your
computer.
Try entering the CometCursor site into your Restricted Sites in your browser
security settings. (IE5.5: Tools/Internet Options/Security/ and click on
the Sites button) Anything that comes from their site will not be allowed
to download.
I tested it after doing so, and *tried* to download it, but wasn't able to.
I also love using AdAware (http://www.lavasoft.de/aaw/index.html) every few
days just to check if there is any spyware on my system. The clean up part
is the best. The latest update as of 21 APR 01 now works on Hotbar and
SaveNow.
Maybe we should all see if Steve Gibson (http://www.grc.com) would come up
with a CometCursor prevention tool! :) I know he's given Real Networks
hell.
