Adware software provider 180Solutions has filed suit against security
company Zone Labs for what it claims are "false and misleading statements
about 180's products" within the popular ZoneAlarm tool. ZoneAlarm alerts
users to the existence of 180's Zango software, and says it may log
keystrokes and track Web sites visited.

The lawsuit
<http://www.sunbelt-software.com/ihs/alex/180Solutions_v_ZoneLabs1.pdf> ,
filed in the Superior Court of King County, Washington, alleges that Zone
Labs has caused "thousands of 180's customers to remove or otherwise

of its applications caused by ZoneLab's tortious conduct."
