I've talked about Claria before. That's the company that installs Gator on your machine and then watches everything you do and reports back to the company so they can sell your personal information to other companies. They call it "behavioral marketing services". Those of us not suckling at the tit of Satan know it by it's more appropriate name "spyware".
Apparently, life is good at Claria, and they want to find more ways to suck out your information, because they're filing an IPO which should bring them a fat pile of cash. Seriously, this is like underwriting privacy theft, and giving it legitimacy. NOT A GOOD IDEA.
