Interesting article on how peeps are reacting to spyware. Do the numbers seem inflated, or are people getting wise?

The numbers are clearly wrong.

"Eighteen percent said they had switched the type of Web browser they use in order to avoid spyware."

Given that IE still has ballpark 90% market share, that seems to be a problem.
