Bombermania has spyware
The "Bombermania" story called "AWARD-WINNING GAME "BOMBERMANIA" GOES FREEWARE!", claims that this is freeware but the truth is it has a browser hijack in it. DO NOT DOWNLOAD THIS GAME! It is sad since it was an ok game. And even funnier is the fact that the story posted above it was talking about how to remove spyware. Maybe this was the spyware he was talking about? I tested this on a Virtual Machine just make sure that I had not picked up the spyware from somewhere else. On a clean machine I ran the game and IE was hijacked. It looks like it replaces the host file and a browser helper object is installed. Just thought I would let everyone know.
