Wildtangent are a bunch of virus writing scumbags. Writing spyware apps is just as destructive as writing viruses, considering the amount of time and money spent on removing spyware from machines that are non functional due to being infected by garbage like Wildtangent.
I've seen spyware aps log keystokes, record every URL you visit, install applications without your knowledge or permission, lack an uninstaller, and I've even seen spyware that disables anti-spyware software along with virus scanners. All of this sensitive, personal information goes to some guy sitting in a shack in Nimibia, ready to sell it all to anyone who asks (or just give it away for free).
If that's not a virus, I don't know what is.
Stay away from ANYTHING that contains ANY spyware. Even if it seems harmless, or "you don't mind".
Just 2 cents from a computer repair tech who's spent more time dealing with spyware related problems then hardware, software, and virus problems combined.
