    ZEDO is often linked to the spyware because ZEDO uses HTTP cookies to track users' browsing and advertisement viewing history, as well as the methods which it gathers information, such as deceptive ads and clickjacking, although the company disputes being categorized as spyware. Though ZEDO does offer an opt-out page, it will only affect cookies; ZEDO continues to track users via IP addresses. Programs such as Spybot - Search & Destroy quarantine Zedo software as adware so that users can remove it from their computer. for more check here http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ZEDO
