I do not want it, I will not install it, it wastes time downloading. Stop sending it to me.

I understand.  If you remember in the future, please uncheck the "opt out" checkbox before initiating the installer download.

I remember the European Competition authorities made a judgement against Microsoft for only shipping Internet Explorer with Windows. How can you only ship the Chrome option with Adobe updates, why do you not give users the option to download other browsers?

Hi Chris,

Our third party offers are optional, and differ depending on your currently used OS and browser.  For example, if you are using Mozilla Firefox, we currently offer a McAfee security utility.

Thanks,

Chris
