Wasn't sure if this topic has already come up.
Installing Audiogalaxy automatically installs a small tracking or "spy"
program called Webhancer. This program not only tracks where you go on the Internet
but also reads files on your hard drives and sends info to some company. Even
after completing Audiogalaxy Satellite's rudimentary recommended uninstall method
which involves manually deleting it's file folder, Webhancer was still on up
and running in the background. I would have never known it were there were it
not for my router logs showing outbound TCP connections to
a1.webhancer.com to port 80 (web).
Looking at download.coms download stats, AudioGalaxy Satellite was the
3rd ranked most downloaded application last week. (341,129 downloads last
week and 4,238,587 downloads to date).
Also, there is no disclaimer regarding this spyware on
www.audiogalaxy.com.
Don't get me wrong, AudioGalaxy satellite is a great application.
They just need to remove the spyware.
