"A Los Angeles District Court ordered three Web marketing companies to cease and desist an operation using the lure of free ringtones and browser updates to download spyware and adware to users' computers.

Keep your virus and spyware definitions up-to-date. It's nice to see the FCC take a stand and shutdown some of these sites.
