As ashamed as I am to say it, I actually forget that I have a blog sometimes! Anyone will tell you that you are supposed to post at least 2 – 3 times per week to your blog. Yet, every time that I try to, I wind up getting sucked right back in to the same old rut again. The rut that I call, “LIFE”!
I guess sometimes you just have to hunker down and “GET-R-DONE”!
Well this is a short post today. I just wanted to let all of my raving RoboForm fanatic fans out there know that if you use RoboForm and you also use a BlackBerry, that you can now combine the two of them to create BlackFormRoboBerry. No I mean a RoboBlackFormBerry. Okay I’ll stop before I offend somebody.
But on the serious side, RoboForm is now capable of being used on your BlackBerry. Two very cool pieces of technology making a merger is always a win-win for everybody. There are some limits to what it can do as this is only in the BETA stages but I’m looking forward to seeing how it works.
You can get all of the details here:

You can stop thinking of different ways to turn RoboForm & BlackBerry into one word now!

I considered looking at your RoboForm Report here: http://www.booksbonkers.com/TheRoboFormReport!.html, but your download set off my anti virus software with a malware warning. Your RoboForm download AiRoboform-reiva.exe contains adware Win32Adware-gen[Adw].
Well, it used to be on that site. Since reporting it, your post has been removed. Bad business Mr. Byrd. Do you have permission to be changing that executable and using Siber Systems icons?

I received an email similar to the aforementioned post by FishStyx that I sent an email reply. As my response I will post that first email and my response here also. I could have very easily erased this comment but I post all comments on my blog whether they be positive or negative. I will never attempt to silence someone’s voice!
The best response would be from those who have already downloaded the software and have had no issues with it to date. I welcome your replies here as well!
The only thing not adressed in the email I will reply to now. I have not altered the executable in any way and yes I have the permissions of Siber Systems. Now here is the email:
“I ran across your site during the course of searching for RoboForm for BlackBerry. You had posted a comment here promoting your RoboForm Report. Out of curiosity I tried to download your free version of RoboForm which set off my anti virus alert. You should take the Adware trojan Win32Adware-gen out of your software. People don’t need that crap on their system, or your bogus RoboForm Report.
Regards,”
The email was just as is shown here without a signature but his name is Robert Reid. Here is my response:
“Dear Robert,
I thank you for your email and the attention that you put into warning others on the blog that I posted to, my blog and anywhere else that you could post a warning about my site.
Some may have taken this as a personal attack on them, I did not. There ARE instances where you can become a victim to someone hacking onto your server and setting up an iframe or even leaving some sort of adware on your domain.
Even Google recognizes this. If that happens to you, they give you a malware warning but they tell you that they realise that it may be happening unbeknownst to you the site owner. I use the Google Webmaster Tools (see this reference: http://www.seroundtable.com/archives/017527.html), so I would have been alerted right away.
I’m sure that Google knows adware when they see it and you would have also saw a warning similar to this one in this example: (http://www.seochat.com/c/a/Search-Engine-News/Google-Malware-Warning-Big-Help-or-Big-Brother/) Yet I still exercised some due diligence on my part by simply taking the following steps.
I immediately began to run some internal checks to make sure that this was not the case. I carry many protections on my own hardware to make sure that my business computers are not affected since that can be a financial risk, to say the least.
I use AVG 8.0, Zone Alarm, Ad Adware 2007 and SpyBot. I ran a check of the download by first downloading the exe. file to my desktop and then scanning it with AVG. No problems. Then I scanned my computer with all four softwares and once again there was no problems.
I don’t know what you use on your computer but my software would have alerted me to any problems upon download and would have told me what the exact problem was right away. This did not happen.
Many scam artists in this industry use adware on sites in an attempt to do many things, all of them unethical. I do not practice business this way. Here are some sure signs that I am ethical in my busines practices:
1. My picture and my name are in plain view on my site
2. I am a legitimate business entity, verified by PayPal for two years now.
3. My business address is also on my web site.
4. My business phone# is also in plain site on my web site.
None of these are the practices of someone who is knowingly distributing adware on a web site. It is normally a site that has none of the above. In most instances they are using free smiley’s, free ringtones or any other web page that carries no vendor information at all.
With all of this being said, I still can not tell you why you are the first person to get this warning out of the 175 people that have already downloaded my report and the software.
As an act of good faith I am including my report with this email for you to read. If you believe that the software is adware then please DO NOT download it from the report, just utilize the content.
I will be posting this email and my reply to my blog and the other blog that you posted on expressing your concerns that my software carries a trojan. I feel it is only right that my side of the story be told as well. I sincerely thank you for your concern and being a person of such deep ethics who deemed it ethical to warn others. In any instance…
