I installed Weatherbug a few weeks back after seeing some threads about it being a useful application. My husband recently reminded me that it has a reputation as a purveyor of malware/spyware on PC's at least. I did some googling and noticed they are trying to clear their name, but don't know if that's been successful. Some say it isn't spyware, others say it used to be but still has shady practices, etc.
That's interesting. It would be nice if someone who knows code could take a look and see if there's anything fishy.
I personally use WB because Weather Eye doesn't find my city and I've been pleased with its results. I would be a tad upset if it turns out to be malicious.

Malicious? No. Unfortunate and sometimes annoying practices... maybe. I'm curious to try it myself and take a gander at its behavior but I'm wondering if the current "happy" users are subscribers which would match their Pro behavior which is a-OK to the best of my knowledge.
