Direct Revenue again. What scumbags.

Ben Edelman has been posting new documents from the New York Attny General’s lawsuit as fast as he can. There’s much 
more that’s been posted, including a couple of emails from one of the VC firms that invested in them.

There’s also a number of references to “WebHelper”, who is actually now our spyware researcher Patrick Jordan (he 
joined us in July of last year but had been doing consulting work for us several months prior to his coming on board), 
and we now find he was being researched by a private investigator, as this email from Gary Kibel at Direct Revenue’s 
law firm shows.
