Cut out the default online radio player web search and setting my home page to online radio player from my usual google home page when you start the installation wizard is appalling - these 'forced' changes are really sneaky - you should have

tks 4 the heads up on this home page thief
i would have tried the program only to take the next week, not trying the program... but rather thinking what i'd like someone to do to the programmer and his bosses that destroy all the tabs I have set to open up when I start firefox

lets see, clothed only in a generous coating of honey and tied spread eagle over a hill of fire ants

I only reject boiling in oil because they would die in a matter of minutes..... the punishment for home page hijacking needs to be days if not weeks of constant torture.

Oh, and when the punishment is finally over.... don't forget to bandage their wounds (soaked in saline solution .... 50% should do)

Well said. All the software company owners who produce programs that slow down user's computers need a similar treatment unless they clean up their programs and offer a free program to permanently erase every bit of such programming installed with previous versions of their software. That should be a law! Slowing down people by having them stuck on their computers for extended periods of time for every tiny thing they try to do is criminal, and harms the world's economy and everything else, too!

That's just a test, I wish to see how it's working like. Delete it please.

This well written Comment #5 in "Comments", by Whiterabbit-uk really let's you know what this crappy software's unscrupulous purpose actually is, copy & pasted in full :
I’m a little dubious about installing this software on my computer firstly because by default it wants to change my home page to it’s own web page and makes my search engine change, plus I get security warnings from two different security software’s (Mamutu and Immunet), the first saying that the software downloads data invisibly from the internet and the second warning (from Immunet) was of a W32.Trojan.9e1e, then Mamutu says the program behaves in a similar manner to a Spyware (LAN bypass backdoor). Hmmm very suspicious.

Even when I uncheck the toolbar boxes the program still tries to install a conduit toolbar to my browser. Thankfully I have a decent start-up program (Anvir Security suite) that enables me to further block such behaviour.

The developer should be ashamed at allowing such behaviour. I’m certainly not going to reinstall this software after all the warnings and attempts to install toolbars even when I’ve said I don’t want them. Disgusting behaviour

Oddly hen I installed this the last time it was given away it didn’t give any warnings.

Did you find this comment useful? yes | no (+171) ((already +171 yes votes at 10:26 am))((Put here in case the developer doesn't read the other comment section. Most of them don't, as only a few Developers ever answer questions about the software that users post there.))
