I only came across this forum recently

after having the misfortune to download SpyHunter

from
Download.com. Some great information on these boards which l'm sorry l didn't see a long time ago. :weep:
It's been interesting looking at how Download.com market SpyHunter.

I downloaded a recent version and while l usually look at the reviews posted by other users, at the time l saw it, there were no reviews listed. Apparently SpyHunter keep releasing new(?) versions so that all the negative reviews associated with the previous release are wiped.
Over the past week or so all the negative reviews which had the thumbs up rating down to 23% have been surplanted by a host of positive reviews

(many of which could be seen as suspect). It's now approaching a 50% approval rating. I notice today that SpyHunter is now also a featured download on the startup download page. There must be a lot of money in spyware if SpyHunter goes to the trouble of, l assume, paying for this sort of positioning.
Anyone have any thoughts on why, with all the negative information available on the web, Download.com persist in marketing SpyHunter? Is it just about money? I thought Download.com was supposed to be one of the better download sites around, or have l been misled?
