Pay for Spam

How often have browsed the web looking for spyware or adware to install? Chances are, not often and not intentionally. Most people, myself included, actually get quite upset to find out that a desirable looking shareware or freeware application comes fully loaded with enough advertising to cripple the application's usefulness. Or you discover that the email address given during website registration was sold to spammers who are more than ready to flood your inbox. I quickly unistall the application and never look back as well as discontinuing my account with any such website.

Now imagine paying these companies to send you spam. Imagine paying for the software that's full of advertising. Well imagine no more. Microsoft Money and H&R Block Taxcut are two software packages that you can spend your hard earned money on and they will do the honor of nagging you with advertising and plugs for there own and other companies.

It started out as small easy to ignore advertising, now it's matured into all out harassment. This years tax software from H&R Block was chocked full. Advertising from ING Direct, Earthlink, and credit report companies filled the box and applications.

Companies better take note. There's enough alternative software available that users don't have to pay for your spam. If I want harassed by advertising, there's plenty of opportunity available elsewhere. I won't tolerate paying to be hassled by advertising.
