Jim Giles reports that analysts at the computer security company McAfee were instrumental in uncovering the scareware marketing ploys that got Innovative Marketing executives into such trouble (27 March, p 38). One would have thought that the experience would have prompted legitimate security companies to ensure their own policies were spotless. However, last year McAfee and Symantec were both fined over auto-renewal clauses buried in their terms of service.
