These posts sure look more and more like spam. If you were to suggest
multiple products, not just one you have a vested interest in, it would
not be spam.

Spamming all of the people with help requests with your AD for SAB is
just the same as anyone else spamming the group for anything else that a
poster has a vested interest in.

Google popup blocker is free, no trial period required.. how come you are
advertising in newsgroups?..

The one built into WinXP SP2 blocks just about everything I've encountered.

Leythos,

The person asked "What is the best pop-up blocker?". I have the right to
inform a user of our product. It would seem that if the interest of this
group is in assisting users to solve problems then recommending a solution
that is trusted, works and has received great reviews would be of ultimate
benefit to the user. No all things in life are free. I have been developing
ad blocking and pop-up blocking software since the first pop-up blockers
appeared on the market so I am qualified to make a recommendation.

I have invested lots of time and research into creating user friendly and
effective products to help users - unfortunately everyone can't just give
away software, especially if the users expect to have it supported and
actually be around in a year.

Most of the users that have tried my product have had their problems solved.
All of the other solutions suggested did nothing to solve their problem. So
the user benefited - which again should be the goal of the group.

Users have the right to be informed of products, both free and paid - it is
ultimately their choice to purchase or to find a free solution.

I trust clears things up for you and you don't have to follow my posts
around accusing me of "spamming". I am providing solutions to problems for
the users.

Mike,

Google pop-up blocker blocks ONLY pop-ups, that's it. It does not handle any
of the other types of ads that appear as pop-ups to users. Nor do they
handle ads generated by spyware/adware applications. The HTML Dialogs and
DHTML windows are not blocked by the Google Toolbar, XP SP2 Pop-Up Blocker
or any other free solution. Many users don't know the "specific" types of
pop-ups and refer to any window that appears, including ActiveX and Script
Errors as "pop-ups", thus the simple pop-up blocker may not provide the
entire solution for the user.

I am providing the user the OPTION of CHOOSING another solution that may
provide more overall effectiveness than one of the many free solutions. The
user has the right to be informed of any solution that may solve their
problem.

Our product is fully functional during the trial period and provides a
complete uninstall via the Control Panel Add/Remove programs - it is of no
harm for a user to try it for themselves.

I dont' care how much time you've invested or if your product works -
you are blatant in your advertisement in a non-ad's group. If you don't
want to be called a spammer, then don't spam the group.

If you want to be a good member of the group you would suggest multiple
products or at least try and make your post look like you didn't have a
vested interest in the product. As it is, you are giving biased
responses, to a product you have a vested interest in, to get posters to
purchase your product. That puts you in the same EXACT realm as a
spammer.

If you don't like being called a spammer then don't spam.

What you are doing is offering/promoting a product in which you have a
financial interest, and doing it in an environment that does not want or
morally allow this kind of selling.. I don't give a flying whatever re. what
your program can or can't do.. it may well be the best thing since white
sliced bread, but you and I know that you should not be promoting it in this
way..

Leythos,

Users are asking questions here, and I am providing an answer. It so happens
the answer is a product I have created to solve these users exact problems -
user want a solution - not to download 50 free products only to have nothing
work and their computer be filled with software that did not solve their
problem.

I have personally helped dozens of users solve their problems for FREE. I
have given away hundreds of copies of my software to users I have assisted
from these very groups. I will continue to post in this group as I am an
educated and qualified technical person who can actually assist users and
help the group.

It is interesting that only you and maybe one other person complain about
ANY of my posts - if it was blatent advertisement for a product that did not
work or help anyone I am sure I, and the group, would hear about it.

Mike,

I have a right to educate users the same way you do. Do you think for a
minute the people giving away "Free" software like Spybot and Adware have no
financial interest in their products? Those are allowed to be promoted all
over the group even when they don't solve the problem. Their authors make
money from their products the same way I do. If my product was free, you
would have no problem - but it bothers people that people make money from
software.

Those authors post in the newsgroups the same as I do - the only difference
being that I use my real name and company instead of creating fake user
names and posting.

You are NOT providing answers you are providing a LINK to a program that
you have a vested interest in - that makes you a spammer. If you didn't
have a vested interest in the product it would not be spam.
I have personally helped dozens of users solve their problems for FREE.

Which has nothing to do with your spamming the group.
I
have given away hundreds of copies of my software to users I have assisted
from these very groups. I will continue to post in this group as I am an
educated and qualified technical person who can actually assist users and
help the group.

Your "give away" or education level has nothing to do with the fact that
you are spamming the group wiht a advert for a product that you have a
vested interest in.

As it stands, your product is not the only product that makes the claims
you do, but your product is the only one being hawked here by a person
with a vested interest in it - and is commercially available.
It is interesting that only you and maybe one other person complain about
ANY of my posts - if it was blatent advertisement for a product that did not
work or help anyone I am sure I, and the group, would hear about it.

You site two different things - If it was an ad and the second is if it
didn't work - the two have nothing to do with each other.

If you post a link to a commercial product, to every post that might
benefit from it, and you have a vested interest in it, then you're a
spammer.

If I were to post a link to your product, even by itself, it would not
be spamming as I have no vested interest in your product - that's the
difference between a spammer and a helper.

What you fail to see is the difference in who is posting it - the makers
of AdAware and SBS&D are not posting their product ad's in response to
every query, it's the people that have found benefit in using their
products that are posting links to them.

I was making money on code before you were born (just a guess), and
certainly have no issues with you or anyone making money off their hard
work.

I do have issues with people posting ads for products here when they are
the software vendor - that's called SPAM in every sense of the word.
Those authors post in the newsgroups the same as I do - the only difference
being that I use my real name and company instead of creating fake user
names and posting.

Prove it - I know several of the people that support/develop SBS&D and
AdAware, via emails, and I've not see where they post about their
products with blatant adverts like you do.

While your product MAY work, you are a company/vested interest in it,
quite biased, not posting links to anything else in the same class/area,
and that makes you a spammer - simple to understand.

Just look at the facts - Define spam and you will see that your posts
fit.

As already pointed out to you, the other authors are not peddling their
wares here..

I would also like to take issue with part off a statement that you typed in
defence of your actions..

"... not to download 50 free products only to have nothing work and their
computer be filled with software that did not solve their problem."

I don't know of anybody in these newsgroups who advocates, suggests, or
coerces computer users into loading 50 programs, all of which will be
useless.. you do not know anybody who does that either.. many users have
successfully downloaded and run a few free programs from the internet
without any problem and without recourse to your offering..

Worse still is your use of hyperboles in an attempt to scare users into
subscribing to your product, and in the process, deriding the help that
others are offering.. help that is freely given and for which no
remuneration will be forthcoming..

I can't personally stop you typing in these newsgroups, but I can and will
exercise my right to advise users not to use anything, regardless of claims,
where I think that the integrity and decency of the author is questionable..
apart from the spamming issue, your use of hyperbole has placed you in that
category, in my opinion..

Leythos,

Thank you for your opinion.

No problem, I'll keep giving it.
I will keep posting here and helping users.

I didn't ask you to stop, it was not meant that way - and you know it.

I asked that you stop spamming the group and now I'm also asking that
you stop making false claims about other vendors products - unless you
can prove them.

Any vendor that gets such a big head as to buck the system, to claim
that all other products are worthless, well, I won't be recommending
your product to anyone based on your spamming and claims that none of
the others work - it's an ethics thing now.
