      @ajstringham It was crapware/bloatware

      Doesn't make it MALware though.

                  It really crippled Office.

                  It wasn't crippling. Besides, it wasn't malware.

                  It was crippling and drove people to OpenOffice at the time.

                  Malware is anything that disrupts computer operations which was clippy by intent and actuality.

                    One could argue that anything that appears as malware... Is.

                      It's real name was Clippit, the MS Office Assistant.

                        Smithsonian: "[Clippit] one of the worst software design blunders in the annals of computing."

                          Not likely IMO since most of your visitors are techs and probably remember Clippy or at least references to him. It was just a fun idea, though. Maybe you could do it for one day

                              I don't get enough regular foot-traffic to justify it.
