GreenguyandJim Fighting Zango

Is zango still alive and kicking? I thought this was all done after they got nailed in court or is this whole thread about dealing with people who have a now obsolete software package? All the news articles that I see pretty much show that they've been hammered into practical non-existence (http://news.google.com/news?hl=en&ned=us&q=zango).

That hit was for the auto-installs. The rip-off side hasn't been addressed directly yet!

I'm really disappointed that I haven't seen any sponsors come forward on this issue yet.|confused|

"Theft from adwords
Theft of adwords paid clicks.
It's scum ware out there called Zango. At Zango it is possible to buy urls. Example: www.google.com. I tried to buy our own link, the one we pay for at Ad Words, and it was no problem! I tried to buy a competitors domain name as well, still no problems! In other words, you pay Google for the link hits and another person gets the visits! We wrote a letter to Google about this, but no answer. Zango has over 20 million users now and adding 200.000 new every day. It works like this: The surfer clicks your link and your page opens. But your page is covered by another page delivered by Zango. This page belongs to the highest bidder at Zango. So, if you want your page to show, you have to pay twice, first to Google, second to Zango. Zango is destroying the affiliate system as well. One example: Someone can buy the domain name www.amazon.com at Zango, and get every sale from an affiliate having a link to amazon.com! The affiliate code is changed to the highest bidders own.
The only ones with a chance to stop Zango thefts is Google and other search engines. Ban all advertising of Zango! Put all bidders at Zango in the sandbox! This is the last chance to save the whole adwords and affiliate system. So, now I'm going to bid on amazon.com at Zango and I have all possible sales from 2.000.000+ users in a box! I'm rich in no time!"
