Subject: [funsec] Why doenst myspace forbid Zango
Isn't there some way to prevent people from pulling a zango from the
youtube pages? I would think that blocking anything that links to
spyware would be a good policy.
Now I havent used youtube, but I would assume that they have an AV
scanner for posted content, right?

Adware may be lurking in video on MySpace

but is hosted elsewhere and triggers installation of adware when
played.

and attempts to install setup.exe from Zango Cash," Websense said.
