Spyware Fighters Release Testing Docs

An alliance of technology firms and public interest groups committed to curbing the computer "spyware" epidemic released for public comment on Monday a document aimed at helping software users and reviewers understand the complexities of products that promise to rid PCs of the malicious code.

Various kinds of testing are often difficult to distinguish from one another and the Anti-Spyware Coalition encourages testers and reviewers to define the goals and methodologies of their testing. This is ASC's sixth published working report and the comment period ends April 4.

Information on how to post a comment is available on the ASC Web site. Once the comment period ends, ASC members will release a report on the comments and incorporate them into the group's final document.
