Is it me, or is Alexa systemically biased? After all, it only counts those who have installed their toolbar(which is considered spyware?) on their browser, and that's not a good sample at all.

It comes with Windows IIRC.

If Alexa did come with Windows, I'd dislike Windows even more than I already do. :(

Who really cares?  It's anonymous web trafficing.  It's not like they're storing your identity along with every web request you've made like the phone company does with your call records...

It comes with Windows, and it's spyware.  A lot of people uninstall it. 

There's more than a couple people who come here who don't even use Windows, so yes, it's biased.  I've never put much faith in Alexa, and I've said that in a couple other threads around here.

Really?  It's not in my programs list, it has no folders, and it didn't return any registry checks.  =?

If you ever run Spybot or Adaware, they should get rid of it for you.
