Chicog Posted January 13, 2013 Share Posted January 13, 2013 Did it give you the option to deselect it during installation? If not, can you give us an example? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aarn Posted January 13, 2013 Share Posted January 13, 2013 <WARNING; Do not download anything from http://en.softonic.com> Agree entirely, I have let gremlins into my machines in the past... Anything you fancy (and are directed to softonic), instead go to sourceforge.com and look for it there - usually is (unless it is crap).

JakeBKK Posted January 13, 2013 Share Posted January 13, 2013 just downloaded vlc,skype and gom player from there. File size and hash are the same. I assume you mean the SoftincDownloader ? Thats similar to the one you get on cnet? The solution than is simple! click on the proper link ! (No , it is not the big download now button ) 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
noise Posted January 14, 2013 Share Posted January 14, 2013 Interesting comments. I think I have downloaded from them in the past with no problem. And here is what I see today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
worgeordie Posted January 14, 2013 Share Posted January 14, 2013 Never heard of Softonic ?, do all my downloading from Softpedia, Snapfiles,FileHippo, no problems at all, but you do have to be careful as lots of products do try to get toolbars,Chrome,Ect past you when installing ,just take it slow and read everything.

beano2274 Posted January 14, 2013 Share Posted January 14, 2013 Same as the geordie always use Filehippo, don't want too much stuff on my computer, and the things I do need are always on filehippo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
