Hi,

I received a call from Cyberphase.com, who sells keywords and phrases that appear at the top of major search engines, such as Google and Overture. They claim it's not spyware or adware, but a plug-in where they pay to be "bundled" with key downloads, such as Match.com, Adobe Acrobat, etc. It's not featured in every download.

Any thoughts, comments, user experiences?

Thanks.

It's nonsense - I can't see Adobe doing this in a million years.

Try tapping the address in eek

Edited to add - both spellings
