If Panda thinks Gator is the top spyware, they are about 5 years behind the times. Ncase has not been distributed for a long time either.

| I used to see gator on about half of my customers machines but that was a long time ago . Trojans that advertise rogueware outnumber everything else from what I see in the real world . My last three consecutive customers had some kind or another . There are so many places that you can ZLOB from that even being a little careless will get you infected within minutes . |
