Most (if not all) of the "Currency Clones" listed are scams. Be careful. Generally, the only coins you want to pay attention to are BTC and LTC.

Here you can watch the steady stream of altcoins and their scam practices.

I'd like to keep them for completeness sake, but will try and make it more obvious that they should be avoided.

If you want a "complete" list you're missing a lot of other scams: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=134179.0

I'd suggest only including the "major" ones listed on that page. The rest are trivial knockoffs.

Okay. At least fourth person who's told me now. Will remove the non-major ones.

FYI: Namecoin is not a currency clone.
