RE: Microsoft's Anti-spyware Software...
I just googled Giant and I foudn a site with the trial version is 2 minutes.

I understand what you're saying about the license, however, you would find the same clauses (if not more harsh) in any other license. The fact is that any software installed on your computer can decide to download and execute whatever it wants, C2Media's package is no different. The only thing you can do is trust the distributor, and in this case, its me. Categorizing softwares as "possibly dangerous" is too easy and prone to errors and unjustified diffamation.

With that kind of logic, I could consider Java as being potentially dangerous and make your system slower (which, in my opinion, it does) and ask my 7 million users at the next auto-update if they want to remove it from their system... this is completely deloyal and this kind of thing is starting to take some epic proportions. I'm not fighting so much for Messenger Plus! here, more for the idea that nowadays, any software that accuses another one of misconduct is automatically taken as a savior and the information it gives as a solid fact. This just frightens me for the future of software and the spirit of "free competition" if I may say.
