Downloaders. You know, the ones that are infested with adware and stuff you don't need on em. They're on Softonic, CNET, most DL sites.
I loving hate them. They're riddled with stuff that's hard to get off, and worst of all, changes every little thing in your browsers, starts up every boot and trys to install more stuff, it's annoying.
Why do these exist? Do you WANT people to have a worse time trying to get their program, worrying they might hit a button to install something that'll forget up everything on they're computer? Not like viruses, but put icons everywhere, install lots of things and change browser stuff like I said earlier.
Other sites that aren't even for download programs do this. I know they're randomly generated ads, but they're terrible ones. They have redirects and possible viruses that might appear.
I say this to people who have these atrocious downloaders: REMOVE THEM. It'll add less hassle, so you can just give them the actual loving program without hitting "Decline" every time there's a offer.
And yes, I know there's a alternate download. But I just want to hit the button to download it and get the file. Not go through another installer that actually gives you the installer through the original place's server.
I don't want your company powered "Downloader", remove that stuff and keep it away from me.
Go ahead. Tell me I'm overreacting, I don't care. These things need to be removed from the internet completely.
