Lavasoft's new owners operated misleading websites
The new owners of anti-spyware company Lavasoft also own companies linked to deceptive websites and online porn. Michael Dadoun and Daniel Assouline, owners of Montréal-based affiliate online marketing company Upclick, have also operated companies in the past that sold free software to unsuspecting users under the guise of providing technical support. At least one of the software products was Lavasoft's own Ad-Aware.
