Ben Edelman's Valentine's Day missive to C-NetMedia is definitely not a love letter. In a detailed report posted on Thursday, the spyware researcher, attorney, and assistant professor at Harvard University accused the Alabama-based anti-spyware company of deceptive business and marketing practices, and of selling ineffective security software.

Indeed ;)

Ben Edelman is pretty cool because the way he goes about what he does. He is very thorough and takes videos of everything for proof. Plus he has information about a wide variety of things. He has set up a good system for breaking down the bad guys.
