Did I hear correctly that there was a Spyware issue related to Roger Wilco?

If so, what version and what is the concern?

I just reinstalled RW yesterday from their site, and didn't see the Gator app installed. In Win98 all I see running are explorer and systray.

Last time I grabbed it, I got "Gator"ed.

Use this to check for and remove the spyware.

I dl'd and installed it yesterday in Win98SE. No gator. No matter though, as it isn't all that hard to get rid of even if it is installed. As I understand it can be uninstalled from the Add/Remove Programs control panel.
