A buddy of mine called me yesterday to ask about a self-proclaimed unzip utility called ‘WinZIX’. I googled it, and the first thing that came up was their site. Everything after that was discussion pages saying that it’s spyware.

And, since I love everyone here so much, I figured I’d spread the word.

Winzix. Spyware. Don’t download it. :thumb2:
