2005Commercial invasion: Intermix would have knowingly infected, using an spyware, the computers of the net surfers (3,5 million New Yorkers would have been thus trapped) in order to diffuse as much ads as possible to the viewers. The software launched the remote loading and the installation of a toolbar on the brower and flooded then the infected machine with pop-up ads. After a complaint by the Attorney General of the State of New York, Eliot Spitzer, Intermix Media accepted, in June 2005, to settle the suit and paid 7,5 million dollars.:
