if they're stupid enough to not read what they are accepting they deserve this so called 'virus' then 

if the spyware wasnt optional and you HAD to install it, then id see what you mean. but the fact you can freely reject to install it is why it shouldn't be removed. if you read what your installing....you dont get the adware, if you don't read and just click next and accept everything, you'll get the spyware....2 paths....pick 1...simple

but is not, im sick of watching this kind of threads. the sponsor is optional, so whats the point? Patchou needs to get money and i agree with the sponsor  keep the good work coming Patchou, also he gives away money to charity and that kind of things, that is a good action and talks by itself, like i said stop making this kind of threads, the sponsor stay and thats all. 

wow, maybe you should read the whole thread and not quote one thing i was replying to at the end.

weirdos.

btw a pop-up box would be perfect, because serioulsy people read every word on one. the major preoblem is people think they have no choice but to install it.

lets face it, on almost every setup you have to accept of decline an agreement, and if you choose no, you dont get to install it. (just look at the official KaZaA setup)

people dont read, its as simple as that, if you look once quickly you will think "no choice", you have to really watch closely, too closely.

rewording it will do, but i just dont think something like the option of adware should be in this quality progam.

are you deaf, only 2 people in my maxed out buddy list will install it. they dont want adware and they dont have the time to bother installing it since they know it has it in there.

edit: And really its like a guy telling you that you can hold a giant dictionary to get into class. and then he lets a bunch of "slow" kids decide.

Taking advantage of "slow" people isn't cool. And people who are "slow" in terms of computers are n00bies.

Now who's right and wrong?
