I found a copy of the Bonzi Buddy installer on one of my old archive cd's. What should I do with it? Install it in a virtual machine?

    Why the hell do you even have that thing?

    I must have backed it up when my mom had it on her computer. She loved that monkey. I didn't know what spyware was back then.

    Haha, that's gotta be one of my favorite XKCD comics, but I don't have enough ram to run that many VM's. Maybe I could install it on my old Pentium 2 box running Windows 2000 and put it in my routers DMZ.

    Ah Wikipedia, you helped me once again.

    I often thought of global software assistants but this thing doesn't seem to be a useful software and is even rated spyware as it changes the user's homepage without asking, tracks user data and serves ads.

    Since seeing that XKCD, I've wanted to see someone actually do that. It'd be pretty cool.

    yeah, it would be. Maybe with a 80" lcd screen and a one of those uber-Mac Pros...

    The problem is that people who don't know it's evil think it's cute because it's a purple gorilla that dances and sings and talks funny.

    Do...do you think that might actually work? O.o I wonder if he'd take the bait. Do you think Anti-Virus programs would do anything about it?

    Send it to a friend. It's like an STD. You have to spread the love.
