Neither do I. If it's spyware, where can it hide all its monitoring functions if it's only ~150KB in size? However the business association that Ludde has chosen to make with PeerFactor...seems unsavory. PeerFactor/RetSpan is among the worst kind of p2p-copyright-monitoring company -- they monitor, report, and FLOOD file-sharing networks with fakes. I don't think anyone can defend their actions strictly on the basis of "we're just protecting copyrights" if you knew anything about the kind of "DDoS attacks" their flooding of fakes has done to the Gnutella network. (Generating fake resonses to searches for anything with certain keywords in them, monitoring every attempt to download them -- logging them as copyright violations without consideration of legal downloads with same keywords, and even disrupting the network by not properly routing searches which do no contain "forbidden" keywords.) Companies like these are actively working to destroy file-sharing, illegal AND otherwise.
