ABP and NoScript are a stunning combo. No ads, no popups. Nice.
Those who say "Advertising pays for the web!" - yeah, well, you also steal my bandwidth, especially on a slow connection.

If you don't know what they are, I suggest that you find out.
The rogueware? No, it should be able to be detected by a decent package. The bigger question is how it got there - are you up to date on Microsoft Updates?

Car accident is slightly different: there is incontrovertible evidence that something has happened and it should be obvious who was involved.
Committing the crime of photography is another story. I do not see any reason, in a country which does not demand me to carry ID, to identify myself to anyone on purely "suspicion" grounds.

*is* there a printer company that just creates "drivers" and not a 200MB bloatware special that monitors everything?
Sorry, I'm just a tad disillusioned

I am not sure what operating system you are using, but one advantage I found with Windows 7 is you do not have to use the install disk that comes with all that annoying bloatware. I just plug in the printer (or whatever) and the operating system goes online and finds the latest driver only and installs it. Since that feature has come about, I have cut down on the amount of useless programs on my netbook.
