    ..Toolbarware.

    Seems a lot of this is finding it's way onto majorgeeks posing as freeware.

    little more caution in downloading from this site, it's a sad day.

    add the toolbarware to this software please.

    Example Fotosizer 1.8.0.95 [toolbarware]

    Well,

    You can opt not to install it. It doesn't phone home, have malicious intents, spread to other machines, steal your identity, yada, yada.

    It does not fit the definition of spyware, virus, trojan, or anything else. I'm sorry if it offends you :(

    MG tests their downloads for functionality, as well as to make sure there is no malicious software in the application or its installer. Toolbars really don't fall into that category?

    Exactly, you should be better informed before jumping on someones back and making accusations. Since all websites place cookies, you better log off.

    As a part 2, I love how were so wonderful and trusted, but at the sign of any problem, were automatically at fault. Yeah right. Closed, not in the mood for this bullshit.
