orbit explicitly says it is free and contains no spyware and adware. i agree it very much pays to be on the lookout for scams but until someone can verify that this is not a false alarm i think people need to be very careful about spreading false rumours.
i have installed it in a virtual machine and see no sign of adware yet.

ad-aware does not report anything..
