Slashdot article Re: unasked for downloads?

slashdot gets around to the proliferation of "pop-up downloads" and 
"drive-by downloads"

Did we think anyone would be so dastardly?
do we warn against it?

"in some cases, people are not even asked whether they want the 
software. It just installs on the hard drive"
