McAfee scam

New Here ,
Nov 21, 2012 Nov 21, 2012

It's bad enough we have to endure your endless updates but when you try and trick users into installing McAfee AV its a sign that you've lost the plot.

I've been in IT for 25 years and seen many companies come and go. Goodbye Abode, you deserve to die.

There's a special place in hell for the scum who negotiate these bundled crapware download/installations.  I'm just grateful that Microsoft is doing its job of defending Windows 10 users, as visible in this beautiful screenshot:

Persons who are not in their right mind continue with Flash player. See Google and Mozilla pull the plug on Adobe Flash | Daily Mail Online and Welcome Adobe Animate CC, a new era for Flash Professional | Creative Cloud blog by Adobe or Google the subject.

Wappler is the DMXzone-made Dreamweaver replacement and includes the best of their powerful extensions, as well as much more!

The article you link to is from 1.5 years ago.  Google and Firefox continue to support Flash Player.  At this time Flash Player is the only NPAPI plugin supported by Firefox.

While Flash Player isn't the best solution for all applications, it is still viable and appropriate for some applications.

All I can say is I think Adobe is really making a huge mistake. I forgot how much I resent them for this trickery approach. Obviously this shows the slime-balls they really are. I'm sure they'll go out of business soon. They must be hurting hard if they have to trick customers. That's the kind of stuff con-artists do. I held Adobe to a higher standard. Obviously I was wrong.
