Is anyone using the ICOO loader? It's some kind of downloader supposedly similar to bittorrent.

I'm a little leery of installing it since i can't find any real reviews of it.

I wouldn't recommend using it unless you enjoy spyware :P

Hey, thanks.

I wonder, though, it hijacks IE and then it monitors it. I wonder if it would affect Firefox?

I never open IE as a browser... Maybe I'll give it a try this weekend on a throwaway system.

Yikes. I'd stay away. Spyware often makes systems unstable, even if it only apparently affects IE.
