What SpunkyLoveMuff said is that if the sponsor is installed by accident it is because of their own negligence (and not what you twist it around in). Why? Because absolutely nothing is ticked by default and the user must explicitly, before the sponsor is installed:
1) tick the option to install the sponsor (which is not ticked by default)
2) then a big window appears with the title sponsor agreement, with a big area for the sponsor eula
3) then the user must AGAIN tick an option which is not ticked by default.


.....

cookie, cookie, cookie.

Adeptus stated exactly that, that the sponsor is typically installed out of negligence and ignorance, not out of free will. The point SLM was trying to prove is that the sponsor IS installed out of users' free will. Adeptus is right in saying that if you don't pay attention to the installer, you may accidentially install the sponsor without previous experience using the installer. Other installers, such as Nero, WLM, and countless others are much clearer in asking you if you want to install an optional package -- I could uncheck "[_] install yahoo toolbar" in my sleep.
