Another one - BUT, I _DID_ see the tickbox for "Install McAfee scan-yer-ass-forget-about-yer-other-antivirus-efforts-software.. blah blah". AND, I UNCHECKED (it is default to checked, of course... Adobe basterds...)... I unchecked it... No thanks, y'know? So, the fricking Adobe "Download Manager" (ANOTHER PIECE OF JUNK I DO NOT WANT OR NEED!!! AAARRGH), and the download manager downloads The latest Flash.... THEN, it kicks off AGAIN, downloads the Flash again AND ALSO DOWNLOADS AND INSTALLS McAfee-scan-down-yer-throat junk! I had checked NO, but it just auto-installed... and forget about a CANCEL this download/install feature... it is not there... it downloads it while you say/think "NO, THANK YOU, NO!" .... then it installed it. I had to do the uninstall, but don't feel comfortable with McAfee messing with my registry and ALL AGAINST MY WILL!!! So, although it didn't prompt, I read here that someone suggests a reboot to fully remove the McAfee? I am also removing the f-ing Adobe DLM. I don't need another background process fishing around looking to update anything and everything every day!! I'm taking it out. HELL - I AM ABOUT TO BOYCOTT FLASH ALTOGETHER.... Just sick of the crap since Macromedia was gobbled up by Adobe. Hell, I OWN Adobe Professional, great product. But QUIT trying to shove stuff down our throughts... Techs/Devs/etc... can clean up after your garbage --- but so many friends, family and aquaintences get totally bogged down with all the B.S. the companies like Adobe slam on our machines with little regard. Aaaargh!
