Lavasoft RIP?

LavaSoft, creators of the once famous anti-spyware program,  Ad-Aware, was recently sold to a company called Solaria. See here.

Investigations into this company revealed that the people behind Solaria were also alleged to have sold online porn, reskinned peer-to-peer filesharing software, and allegedly 'skimmed' online sales, charging customers for software that they did not order. The new marketing director of LavaSoft was formerly the marketing director of UpClick, a company that has 'refocused its activities' and now offers 'eCommerce activities'.

In other words: forget about Ad-Aware. I don't trust them anymore. Neither should you.
