    Zango

    I am irritated with something that just happened. I followed a link on digg.com to have the following pop-up open. The instructions for this product is deceptive at best. I don't know if it is malicious. Regardless, if you run into this pop-up, read carefully.

    Wow, good tip... definitely Zango is not worth the risk to pick any option!

    Just like double negative questions... i've seen "Are you sure you don't not want to Format C drive?!"

    ARGH!!
