Well it seems an article posted on digg incorrectly stated some facts in the relationship with Zango and porn. As it turns out (if you followed this, you're aware), Zango was not distributing porn but their association with YapBrowser certainly didn't help matters. Paperghost gives the lowdown on the facts.
Well hot on the heels of Zango being exposed for advising affiliates on how to insert their software onto MySpace, comes great news!!
Warner Bros. is dumping Zango as an adware vendor!!
Got a few things happening last day or so:

Well after getting some negative press back in May, the newly formed but still-doing-business-as-usual 180Solutions-cum Zango is once again duping users on MySpace.
See, you really can't change the spots on a leopard. Or is that the stripes on a zebra? Regardless, read more here
This rogue is very new and so far no users have claimed to be infected by it, but give it time, they will begin to popup by weekends end I'm sure. I even took the time to add a comment as a reviewer of the app for SiteAdvisor. Read More Here
