Is there a safe way to install software which contains spyware, adware and
bundles?
I'm thinkin more to install it in safe mode or changning admin preferences.
Would this help not getting effected?
 
If ever I download anything, I always check to see if something else will
come down with it.. if there is 'sponsor' software involved that DOES NOT
give me the option of NOT having it, then I do not download and install
anything..
 
These days if you're going to try downloaded stuff you need a second
computer, or else a removeable HD.

You also need some change-tracking software like InstallWatch from
http://www.epsilonsquared.com to find out what the install (and subsequent
first run) did.

Unless it's from a completely trusted source, I'd never install anyting
without a test-run first.
