Spyware - follow the money

This is rather long article by someone who "...spent about six hours removing the infection, but also tracking down the source of the infection, and painstakingly backtracking all the popup ads that the virus displayed on her computer. My goal: Follow the money. Discover where the infection came from, and who was making money from it. The results were, to say the least, interesting."

He is particularly hard on some well known hosts.
