Oh Well
=====================


== History ==
Oh Well is a 1989 comedy brickfilm by Andy Boyer and Dave Lennie. It is among the earliest brickfilms created and among the earliest known dialogue-based amateur brickfilms.[1] It is also the first full film to feature the characters of Biff Feedback and Mario Stradivarius, who would appear in the majority of Lennie and Boyer's films over the next fifteen years.
The software used Microsoft Agent technology similar to Office Assistant,<sup>[2]</sup> and originally sported Peedy, a green parrot and one of the characters available with Microsoft Agent. Later versions of BonziBUDDY featured its own character: Bonzi, the purple gorilla.<sup>[3]</sup> The program also used a text to speech voice to interact with the user. The voice was called Sydney and taken from an old Lernout & Hauspie Microsoft Speech API 4.0 package. It is often referred to in some software as Adult Male #2. It works with Balabolka.


Some versions of the software were described as spyware and called a virus.<sup>[4]</sup> BonziBUDDY was discontinued in 2004 after the company behind it faced lawsuits regarding the software and was ordered to pay fines.<sup>[5]</sup> Bonzi web page remained open after the discontinuation of BonziBUDDY, but was later discontinued at the end of 2008. On 2016, the Bonzi website (''[https://bonzi.link bonzi.link]'') went back and its now being downloadable compressed file. The version of BonziBUDDY linked on this site has been stripped of any spyware it may have once contained.
Biff Feedback arrives at his friend Mario Stradivarius' house to inform him of the journey he shall be undertaking in search of a beautiful woman who appears in his dreams. Upon realising he has been dreaming of the same woman, Mario agrees to accompany Biff on his search.


== Criticism ==
The duo's journey takes them from Mongolia to south-east China where they are captured by the police for speeding. After escaping from the police station, Biff and Mario continue their adventure and eventually find the girl from their dreams. However, upon locating her, the two physically fight over her affection which displeases the girl and causes her to reject them both.
In April 2007, ''PC World'' readers voted BonziBUDDY the 6th on a list named: "The 20 Most Annoying Tech Products". One reader was quoted as criticizing the program because it "kept popping up and obscuring things you needed to see".<sup>[7]</sup>


One of the last newspapers to write about BonziBUDDY while it was still in distribution described it as spyware and a "scourge of the Internet".<sup>[8]</sup> Another article found in 2006 on the BusinessWeek website described BonziBUDDY as "the unbelievably annoying spyware Trojan horse".<sup>[9]</sup>
Biff and Mario are entirely indifferent to the rejection, both casually stating "Oh well". The woman resumes waiting for someone to arrive and win her affection while Biff and Mario leave. Outside, they recap the events of their day but reveal that they haven't learned much from their failed adventure. They then get in to a car to drive home.


=== Adware or spyware ===
Oh Well was written and filmed over one weekend in 1989. It was written and directed by Andy Boyer with animation by Dave Lennie. Rather than using individual frames to create animation, it is made of a series of brief video clips, averaging roughly 2 frames per second or less.
A number of sources identify BonziBUDDY as spyware, a claim the company disputes.<sup>[10]</sup> In 2002 an article in Consumer Reports ''Web Watch'' labelled BonziBUDDY as spyware, stating that it contains a backdoor trojan in that it collects information from users. The activities the program is said to engage in include constantly resetting the user's web browser homepage to bonzi.com without the user's permission, prompting and tracking various information about the user, and serving advertisements.<sup>[11]</sup>


The Spyware Removal Database at Safer Networking (makers of Spybot – Search & Destroy) states "BonziBUDDY is an Internet Explorer toolbar that may change your web browser settings, change your home page, and launch pop-up advertisements while tracking your web browsing habits."<sup>[''citation needed'']</sup>
Crude in-camera special effects are employed often such as filming a TV screen for a tunnel effect and using real fire for explosions. One sequence shows a lighter being held up to a set that had been covered in lighter fluid to create real combustion, though it fails to ignite and the shot ultimately amounts to nothing. Another scene shows a line being drawn on a map of Asia in real time to signify traveling. Boyer has stated that the only reason Biff and Mario are shown to live in Mongolia is that the only map available during production came from an issue of National Geographic that was lying around, featuring the map of Asia.[2]
 
Trend Micro and Symantec have both classified the software as adware.<sup>[12][13][14]</sup> ''Spyware Guide''<nowiki/>'s entry on the program also states that it is adware.<sup>[15]</sup>. and to uninstall him is to kill with the icon with the anti virus on it, all you need to do and click on it then click on uninstall and boom he is gone.
 
== Legal ==
''Internetnews.com'' reported the settlement of a class action suit on 27 May 2003. Originally brought against Bonzi Software on 4 December 2002, the suit accused Bonzi of using its banner advertisements to deceptively imitate Windows computer alerts, alerting the user that their IP address is being broadcast. In the settlement, Bonzi agreed to modify their ads so that they looked less like Windows dialog boxes and more like advertisements.<sup>[16][17]</sup>
 
On 18 February 2004, the Federal Trade Commission released a statement indicating that Bonzi Software, Inc. was ordered to pay $75,000 in fees, among other aspects, for violating the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act by collecting personal information from children under the age of 13 with BonziBUDDY.<sup>[18]</sup>

Oh Well

=========

Oh Well is a 1989 comedy brickfilm by Andy Boyer and Dave Lennie. It is among the earliest brickfilms created and among the earliest known dialogue-based amateur brickfilms.[1] It is also the first full film to feature the characters of Biff Feedback and Mario Stradivarius, who would appear in the majority of Lennie and Boyer's films over the next fifteen years.

Biff Feedback arrives at his friend Mario Stradivarius' house to inform him of the journey he shall be undertaking in search of a beautiful woman who appears in his dreams. Upon realising he has been dreaming of the same woman, Mario agrees to accompany Biff on his search.

The duo's journey takes them from Mongolia to south-east China where they are captured by the police for speeding. After escaping from the police station, Biff and Mario continue their adventure and eventually find the girl from their dreams. However, upon locating her, the two physically fight over her affection which displeases the girl and causes her to reject them both.

Biff and Mario are entirely indifferent to the rejection, both casually stating "Oh well". The woman resumes waiting for someone to arrive and win her affection while Biff and Mario leave. Outside, they recap the events of their day but reveal that they haven't learned much from their failed adventure. They then get in to a car to drive home.

Oh Well was written and filmed over one weekend in 1989. It was written and directed by Andy Boyer with animation by Dave Lennie. Rather than using individual frames to create animation, it is made of a series of brief video clips, averaging roughly 2 frames per second or less.

Crude in-camera special effects are employed often such as filming a TV screen for a tunnel effect and using real fire for explosions. One sequence shows a lighter being held up to a set that had been covered in lighter fluid to create real combustion, though it fails to ignite and the shot ultimately amounts to nothing. Another scene shows a line being drawn on a map of Asia in real time to signify traveling. Boyer has stated that the only reason Biff and Mario are shown to live in Mongolia is that the only map available during production came from an issue of National Geographic that was lying around, featuring the map of Asia.[2]
