Ok, this may not be the right forum but it is application related so here it is:

I just did a massive scan using Xoftspy(havent made my mind up about this program yet)

but it came up with about 90% of the findings to be WildTangent related, spybot at times also ids wildtangent related hits as spy or adware.

is wild tangent really a threat?

I've done searches for wild tangent and I'm getting mixed results.

Anyone have any input?
