I do know that many many people are not using this BECAUSE of the ad ware. They see it as a type of malware which has infected their computer.
Not a good advert in my opinion.


well, two years ago there were 20 million active users of Plus! with around 500,000 new installs each day, and IIRC over 50 million downloads.  I'm almost certain that this number will have increased in the past two years with the advent of skinning.

So maybe one or two are put off because they are badly informed about "malware" "infecting" their systems....but it is them who is missing out as there is nothing 'infectious' about Plus, even WITH the sponsor installed.....not to mention as stated a million times that it is completely optional and easily removable if it is installed by accident
