And neither does the application, which I have used over several version
revisions for about three or four years.

Whatever they state on their website, it's clearly *NOT* included in the
setup file hosted by BetaNews.

And you also get the opportunity *not* to install the adware when you first
run the installer. But you do have to read this choice to make it. It would
soon become very obvious if it were nevertheless installed.

That's besides the point .... point is, it has no business being there in
the first place. Toolbars (i.e. Irfanview) is one thing - blatant malware is
quite another.
