NeoAudio - A CDEx ripoff with spyware

[Rickio]

I know some of you know, but for the unsuspecting here is the news on NeoAudio, right from the cdex webpage:



Cdex Home Page ( http://cdexos.sourceforge.net/ or http://www.cdex.n3.net/)
Please don't download NeoAudio:

There is an application called NeoAudio, which is a straight CDex rip off. They changed some string (i.e. replace CDex with NeoAudio), changed the logo and added some nice SpyWare and Adware. I contacted Richard M. Stallman about this issue, but unfortunately I can not do much about it, except for the fact that they are removing/changing copyright strings which they should not. So please do not download and install NeoAudio (they probably make quite a few dollars by shipping the adware) and also advice other people NOT to download NeoAudio either, and warn innocent users not to download this application but download CDex instead.

Yeah, i saw that. I hate it when people do that. It reminds me of the Morpheus/Gnucleus rippoff. Its a shame that so many good programs are ruined by losers who just want to make some money. Im sure NeoAudio will be more advertised than cdex and some uninformed people will get it, but at least some people are informed and will use the real deal, not a cheap money-making ripoff.

To People who rip off open source projects --> :finger :ass :hi

The sad part is that even if everyone in our community, avoids it there will still be thousands of unsuspecting people out there who will dl this program, and make Neoaudio makers lots of money,
hopefully someone will come up with a witty plan, that will teach the brainiacs that coded and released this garbage a lesson. yeah thats the ticket.,
