I see this article is dated September 5, 2004, however, your comment is based on VERY old versions of eAcceleration. Had you actually tested what you're saying you would know this.
There is no "Download Receiver" entry any more, now there is an "eAcceleration Setup" entry.
Posted by: Bill at September 15, 2004 1:57 PMeAcceleration is a very good software that removes viruses and spyware, you need to update your site.
Posted by: Kris at October 10, 2004 1:24 PMI don't understand ANY bad rap that eacceleration has gotten. For a few bucks a year I get NO, nada, viruses or pop-up-plagues. I do not use their side products but their service seems excellent. I recommend it to clients and it just runs in trhe background and they become pop-up free and virus free.
Posted by: A.VanEss at October 11, 2004 4:32 PMI'm also confused. I haven't seen anything odd since installing this program. Actually, pop-ups and junk I don't want disappeared. A few dollars for this service is well worth it to me. There is no download receiver that I see, either.

Posted by: Isaac at October 28, 2004 12:14 PMyeah I agree Isaac, I hate all that eanthology stuff its not good for ones computer.
http://www.veloz.com/ is the same spyware stuff
You have to be kidding me! This is TRUE spyware across the board.
I didn't knowingly download it to this computer by any means, but here it is!
Webroot is NOW getting rid of this non-essential nuisance.
Sincerely,
Ted
BEWARE: Veloz and StopSign are insideous data-mining tools (i.e. spyware) that have hit the big time! Many television markets (Saint Paul/Minneapolis for one) are now being plagued by TV commercials promoting this dangerous crap. This is "viral marketing" taken to the next level.
Any individual ignorant of the downside of these tools deserves what they inflict upon themself. However, anyone who passes themself off as some manner of IT Professional would do a far greater service to their customers by persuing a career in the fast-food industry!
Posted by: Scott at November 24, 2004 12:43 AMSomeone hacked my computer and sent bulk e-mail from my screen name.Desperate to get rid of the viruses I some how came across STOPSIGN. I even paid for it! 24.00 Now I feel like a real dummy as every one Ive talked to said stopsign is a scam and is really spyware. I ran my other spyware program and it identified Stopsign as spyware. And to make matters worse, even after stopsign assured me my computer was free of all spyware and viruses someone sent more bulk e-mail from my screenname the next day. Stopsign even said it couldnt read some of my files, so if it cant read some of my files, Id think those files could possibly be infected. Im very unhappy with Stopsign and e-mailed them to cancel my membership, they e-mailed me back and for another 9.00 I could become a "VIP" and talk to a live person! Please let other people know, so they wont get "taken" like I was.
Posted by: amy at November 30, 2004 3:06 AMSay what you will, I've enjoyed two virus and pop-up free years since purchacing the cheapest eAnthology package. I don't care if another program calls it spyware, it works and thats all that matters to me. My window and antivirus updates are done for me while I sleep. Our family uses the internet alot, and download from peer to peer sites, and all the viruses we encounter are stopped immediately.
Could someone explain why I should not use this product that has worked so well?
