I want to place his file for download after he has been reprogrammed. If you know of a site that has already reprogrammed him or could help please let me know. I know myself I would love to have had that purple little monkey without all the problems that came with it. Imagine what it would do for some kids who have learning disorders or Autism. So a interactive Blue Monkey that has no spyware or virus would be awsome.

Everyone hates him he was so hard to remove but it shows how many liked him before they downloaded him and found out what he was like. So many people downloaded the orginal Bonzi Buddy. I believe this would be a hudge thing to do.

There has to be a way to reprogram this little monkey so kids and adults can use him for what they originally thought he was. I want to recolor him Blue and make him with no Spyware with a home page link to what you would want, like myspace. I would like some help to reprogram him where he has no spyware or viruses.Įveryone seemed to like this little talking, singing, purple monkey. I have the Boni Buddy file I downloaded years ago.
