Bonzi Software

Bonzi's Solitaire

Bonzi's Solitaire is the Solitaire game built into the 1999 desktop assistant Bonzi Buddy. Bonzi Buddy is a discontinued freeware desktop virtual assistant created by Joe and Jay Bonzi. Upon a user's choice, it would share jokes and facts, manage downloads, sing songs, and talk, among other functions. People called it spyware after it was found out to have collected user's personal information before serving them pop-up ads. Because of this, it had to pay $75k in fines, and was discontinued in 2004.
