 Nice

"...As a result of Sunbelt’s re‑examination of the iSearch applications, Sunbelt has determined that, in light of its targeting criteria, Sunbelt will not be changing the status of iSearch at this time. However, Sunbelt welcomes an open dialog and would be more than happy to review its current listing threat levels or default actions (quarantine, remove, ignore) should iSearch demonstratively show a change in its practices...."

CounterSpy counterstikes

That in itself is reason to give CounterSpy a trial run.
"...we sent a response. It's 16 pages, with detailed documentation about iDownload's practices"
I'm sure it was a lot clearer than a 45 page EULA.

I wonder who helped them write such a long response?

Kiss off...

...iDownload/iSearch. You know your creating spyware/malware. Using deceptive methods to propagate your software on to users machines. And some how you want us to all just turn our heads and accept that your software is legit. Urrrr.. wrong answer..

You do know their product is basically a licensed version of Giant, right? (Which is a good thing.)

Re: 3 Cheers for Sunbelt!

I'm using a trial version and it found minibug software in some registry keys that were not even there.

Yes, that's why I can't justify adding it now even though it looks like I'll be uninstalling Adaware.:p

Open it with IE. ^_^

I've converted it to an HTML file, but due to possible legal reasons, I can't upload it.

As much as I'd like to, as it is a very good read, I want to respect Sunbelt ^_^ Maybe ask them to post it as an HTML file.

Opening the file closed my IE

KyeU: That sounds like an idea.
