Guess if Bank Of America gets to have a rock video, so do anti-spyware companies. Rockdotrock's "Is It Really You (I'm Talkin' To?)" is a sad, commercial attempt at viral video -- but it's so bad that Norton has gotta be in on the joke. And so fucking predictable! As always, the fraud-proof software gets the babe. Beat it, online perps.

so this guy is trying to masturbate online with his girlfriend, even though she lives down the street... and he discovers she's a whore... so he rounds up a posse, and then somehow uses Norton Antivirus to commit murder in cold blood... and then we're presumably leading into a gay gangbang... and then it turns out to all exist in the Matrix? is this a dream Ted Stevens had about spyware?
