I actuall dig this pdf reader, its light, its small and it's not adobe
:) and yes I'm aware that version 7 reader is fast... i think this is
just as fast.. if not faster cuz it doesn't have to play the whole
update vulnerability games...

 It's extremely unethical.  The Adobe Reader download is truely
 nasty.  Not only are the boxes prechecked, but they are hidden for
 the first couple of seconds.

Also beware of the new CCLEANER, one of the install options is the yahoo 
toolbar.

[H] blocking Yahoo toolbar ?

2006-03-27 Thread FORC5
I have noticed of late a lot of sites have a boxed pre checked to install yahoo 
tool bar, while I am alert enough to uncheck the box some one in the family is 
not and I do not want to uninstall it anymore, any way to block it's install up 
front ? running ms anti spyware and webroot anti spyware, I wonder if they 
could be configured. Neither one pops up when it installs. I know ( think ) it 
is no worse then google just do not want it.
I think what yahoo is doing is not ethical, one should have to check the box if 
they want it, not the other way around, very sneaky IMO
