Re: AVG upgrades popular security suite
Yes this option is enabled by default during installation. However someone like you shouldnt just keep clicking on "Next" button to pass the installation, right? One of the installation windows asks you whether you would like to install toolbar or not. Btw I also didnt wrote the AVG is for BFU only, all I wrote was that its easy to these people however if you would like to set something as you wish it is possible.
To mark5019> which browser do you use? Did you install toolbar?
To TK Junk Mail> thx for understanding
Currently there is a lot of work on AVG 8 which have to be done yet. In my opinion we could wait a few builds later until release however I work neither for marketing nor sales department so I know nothing about this "politics" |

@AVG Stuff
Someone like Tom shouldn't just keep clicking Next? so these are targeted specifically at Joe Clueless? doesn't really seem fair, especially considering the amount of companies that seem to want to make a bundle of cash at the expense of their customers systems (not to mention time and frustration).
Why isn't this UNticked by default? (ever hear of OPT IN!)
If Joe Clueless or indeed anyone else, wants this rubbish, they'll go to {TOOLBAR_WEBSITE} and download it. After all, the likes of IE, FF etc etc etc, already have search bars built into them. Why would they need yet another useless piece of junk?
Tbh, and this could just be the suspicious bugger in me, but this seems to smack of nothing more than greed on AVGs part (who used to be amongst the few AM companies that I respected and recommended - alas not anymore).
When will you companies learn?
Perhaps a little light reading from a developer that still has his morals is in order?
