No problem. Just thought you might want to know where to post material like this in the future.
Now you know. Take a gander through that thread and see what security companies are fighting.

Hi -midnight,

Oracle and Yahoo already longer are having made a deal.
It looks now like it Oracle is going to drop the Ask Toolbar in favor of that Yahoo search.
Adobe is doing the same with a McAfee 60 seconds scanner bundling. Crapware to be downloaded everywhere.
Unchecky is your best bet to avoid these (mostly unwanted) additionals or when given an option uncheck.
