    Hey folks,

    Anyone remember this program called BonziBUDDY?




    He was this purpule gorilla who popped up on your screen and he would say, "It's nice to see you again!"

    You would right click on his tummy and you culd interact with Bonzi. He could tell jokes, tell facts and he only had one song and that was Daisy Daisy!

    You could also type in something and he would say it back to you.


    I used to have him on my computer and I managed to find him again with a fan made installer!

    A wikipedia article which I have helped in the past is here:

    I'm not advertising spyware, it was a good program back in the day and it will bring back people memories!

    Seems obvious for me if you are going to promote a program that is known spyware the least you could do is provide a link to the spywareless "fan made installler". Simply giving hints will only lead people to installing the spyware version which is a pest just like Smiley Central. I have yet to see a spywareless version of BonziBuddy and the ones that are available now you don't want to be installing on your pc.

    That is more appropriate but remember to be nice to newcomers even if they are whatever

    We like to keep it chill at MDL. That is our spirit
