Nothing is wrong with 'honest parking' where a generic domain points to a page of relevant PPC advertisers. That isn't going to go away and there is nothing wrong with it either. The user may click a link or go away. In addition, they are going to find plenty of dead pages too. Frankly, PPC sites (nor any other for that matter!) should use pop-ups and especially not the pop-ups that many registrars use when monetizing their customers names (while paying their customers no share of the take). You know the type! 'You've just been selected to win a new Dell laptop!', etc. Those are miserable and probably questionable legally as well. Frankly, if you've got a PPC page that gets a lot of click throughs, you're likely doing someone a service and the ad revenue generated is perfectly legitimate. If you have domains and aren't parking them, you should. Your 'lovely' registrar likely will park them for themselves and keep the PPC that they make off your domains for themselves if you don't.
Non-generic typos and spyware are another thing though. I doubt that many legitimate companies want ads delivered by methods that the customer never intentionally initiated and whose delivery is likely to be highly irritating. I suspect that I'd remember you well and make sure that I shopped the competition instead! I know that a lot of people here likely have TM misspellings but if nothing else, I sure wouldn't want my ad there if I was selling a legitimate product.
