Somoto.e potentially unwanted app install integrated without warning #63

Closed sambul13 closed 8 years ago

sambul13 commented 9 years ago

In current binaries ESET Smart Security finds Somoto.E potentially unwanted app (http://www.somotoinc.com/) that hijacks PC web browsers offering paid downloads. Here is screenshot (http://oi63.tinypic.com/vra8g0.jpg).

Also, Malwarebytes shows multiple warnings while Tano at install attempts to contact malicious website (http://oi67.tinypic.com/20pc00y.jpg) several times.

Why don't you clearly show Install options:

  1. Also install extra paid per click or potentially unwanted apps

I wonder if offering force install of extra potentially unwanted apps without user warning or blocking options is in compliance with Github software posting policies.

Thank you for letting me know. It seems that it depends on region, as I didn't have any problems when implementing it. I will remove it from the installer asap.
