There used to be an old software called Bonzi Buddy-I'm sure a few of you would have heard/used it...a cartoon monkey companion-telling jokes, reminding of events, singing songs..was fun while it lasted..

But then I got to know it was just a gateway to viruses . Any experiences with it ?

Here's some reading on the subject; http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bonzi_Buddy

Make your own choice about using it, but I would advise against it.

Thanks for the link. I had a very bad time with it..fun initially , until my system got clogged with loads of spyware

Bonzi buddy was some of the first malware/adware/spyware I removed from peoples machines "back in the day". I haven't seen it or mention of it actually in a number of years now.
