Well, netpumper IS spyware, and it DOES est your CPU, but that's how most sites make money. The bottom line is, try and find what you're looking for elsewhere - if not, install netpumper, and get ready with Spybot-S&D and WinPatrol to prevent it from murdering your system.

if you are going to use net pumper, use it to get what you want then uninstall it, followed by running progs like cw shredder, hijack this, adaware, etc.

well, the NEW netpumper has the option of installing OR not installing "WhenUsearch Toolbar" just make sure that you uncheck the checkbox for it when you install netpumper. Then you should only get the imbedded banner ad at the top of netpumper. This, as many of you know, it a HUGE improvement over previous versions, as "WhenUsearch Toolbar" was the program that lead to eventually swarming your computer with adware and spyware. I have installed netpumper personally without the Toolbar and have had NO PROBLEMS.
