Technical accuracy flaws aside - the article does an amazing job of showing the end-user > botnet > hacker > bad adware company > advertiser connection and demystifies a bit about the internet's dark side. Articles like these are just what average computer users need to be educated about why their computer gets slow. And maybe (big maybe) they'll think twice about junking the pc and calling dell for a new pc with new monitor, new fast OS, and NEW holes to get screwed in by god knows how may kids in Oklahoma.
