I never posted "misinformation" about Spybot Search & Destroy. It removes
C-Dilla, just as I said it does. Yes, I know I could set it to allow
C-Dilla. I could also install closed circuit TV cameras throughout my house
and put all my movements on the Internet. So what?

I don't object to product activation. I object to spyware. The idea that I
"support" spyware by using a product with it is a lie. I object to spyware.
As soon as I figured out that Intuit's product contained it, I stopped using
the product and began complaining here.

You have done nothing other than ridicule me for my objections, and lie
about the basic facts. You are shilling for Intuit. Are they paying you to
shill on newsgroups, or are you a one-man volunteer corporate crusader?

Your actions show your character. You have consistently lied about the
issues; blamed me for the problem caused by Intuit; and labeled me as
"immature" for complaining about Intuit's corporate abuse. You are an Intuit
shill.

I reactivated the software until I figured out what was going on, and then I
stopped using it. Then I posted messages here and elsewhere on the Internet
complaining about Intuit's corporate abuses. You have consciously lied and
misrepresented about my experience, and blamed me for objecting.

You are a shill for Intuit. I hope the job pays well, Jim.



> Then excercise your free return. Hurt Intuit in their pocket book.

I will be doing that shortly. But it's frankly far more effective to share
one's experiences and outrage. Intuit can easily afford to pay refunds one
at a time. It is considerably more difficult for them to deal with a *group*
of outraged customers -- current, and in my case, soon to be former -- who
won't shut up.

You are aware of this, and every chance you get you are labeling me as
"immature" for complaining about a corporate abuse. The abuse was committed
by Intuit, which bundled their personal finance software with spyware.

Webster's definition of "shill" is: "One who acts as a decoy (as for a
pitchman or gambler); also : one who makes a sales pitch." Jim Turner, you
are an Intuit shill.
