Is Samsung Installing Keyloggers on New Laptops
You be the judge!

yep... I went too fast yesterday when referring to the fact that CNet didn't find the keylogger, and the statement about a Vipre FP ... don't know what I was thinking of forgot that indeed Samsung themselves, at least a rep, admitted it, they they indeed installed that crap on laptops.

I'm also guilty of jumping the gun on this one. :'(

Next time I'll try not to be the first to report something and hopefully
report it accurately instead.
Those of us that jumped the gun all owe Samsung a big apology.
Unfortunately we all know that much damage has already been done.  :'(
Maybe my next laptop will be a Samsung.
