Symantec on Tuesday said it filed a lawsuit against the Internet company Hotbar.com to seek the right to label some of its program files as Adware.
"By asking the court for clarification on this issue in our favor, we hope to continue alerting our customers about the presence of these program files, protecting them against possible security risks," said Joy Cartun, senior director of legal affairs for Symantec. "Through this effort, we're trying to ensure that our customers have more control over the programs that run on their computers."
