Spyware purveyor DirectRevenue closes downPublished: 2007-10-25DirectRevenue, a company that made tens of millions of dollars pushing ads onto compromised computers, closed its doors this week, nearly four months after the Federal Trade Commission levied a $1.5 million fine against the firm.According to a message posted to its Web site, DirectRevenue and its subsidiary Best Offers "have ceased operations." The company left behind a single page of instructions to allow victims to uninstall its software and an e-mail address that appeared not to be valid. The company gave no reason for its closure.
