Patchou could choose to incorporate a sponsor which installs allways (like KaZaa or something). And that Plus! is still a free download!
Sure, you
could say that it is not misleading. But imagine if Microsoft put adware in their Media player, with a tick already in the box to intall it. There would be such an outcry... I can't begin to imagine what people would say about it.
It's the same with Plus! Patchyou likes comparing the Google toolbar to the adware bundled with Plus.

LOL, cpu problems are not the problem!!! The problem is, is that my browser gets hijacked, i get a toolbar (this can be disabled), and a search bar that pops up every time I open my browser. Other software may use LOP adware also, so I'm not actually sure if Plus! was the culprit in my case.
What if I install LOP, and don't want it anymore. There's no way to delete it?? In my case there was no way to delete it in "Add/Remove Programs". LOP should install its own entry in the "Add/Remove Programs" list.
