in fact none of the radio buttons is selected by default and the Install button is disabled until the user selects if s/he wants or not install the sponsor.

Well well well... You are absolutely right but one of the problems is that if you choose not to install the sponser the text fades into dimmed gray. Folks like me are often use to that if text becomes dimmed it is impossible to continue installing the program and I have talked to many who says that 'I was unable to continue because the text became dimmed'

I don't know how to solve this problem and in fact I don't care (as long as I know how to solve the problem myself [read: choose the right radiobutton])

yes, it goes grey because it doesn't apply for that option... I see your point however when you select that radio, the install button is enabled and it isn't very hard to see that you can click on it and continue

maybe patchou should abandon that idea altogether and have an advert in the prefrences panel, guido made a screenshot for it once, and it looked cool

I know I know... but still - its kinda fooling people. If something turns dimmed it appears like it is not possible to continue like not accepting an EULA or so...

Anyway this was just a note - I know it is impossible to do anything about it just wanted to mention it

Are you kidding me? The only reason why I grey out the options is to make it very clear that the agreement doesnt apply anymore, so that some people are reassured that they dont have to read anything. The Install button gets enabled immediately and I don't see any way people could miss that. I think you're just trying too hard .

I shouldn't have mentioned it. I think the conclusion is: Danes are more stupid than other people
