  • December 1, 2005
Adware purveyor 180solutions has filed suit in state court in Washington against ZoneLabs, which sells spyware removal software. 180solutions charges that ZoneLabs' software "creates the misimpression that 180's products are spyware" and mistakenly informs users that 180solutions "is trying to monitor your mouse movements and keyboard strokes."
