Wtf is this "zoominfo" site that, upon clicking "Read More", tries to drive-by download an exe onto my computer? What is this, 2002?

Wow, I read the EULA-thing for that executable.

> I Agree to the Terms of Service and Privacy Policy I understand that I will receive a subscription to Zoominfo Community Edition at no charge in exchange for downloading and installing the ZoomInfo which, among other features involves sharing my business contacts as well as headers and signature blocks from emails that I receive.

It's effectively malware though at least they display it up-front, which is more than can be said for most.

This is the same as LinkedIn or Facebook slurping your address book.
