"Sneaky Installer"
Version: EditPad Lite 7.2.3
Pros
Seems ok, but the underhanded installs are hidden and nasty
Cons
Installed link hijacker and installed browser add-on. Installed pretend backup service, UNBRANDED and made to look like windows component. Other programs also installed, 4 in total.
Summary
AVOID EditPad, they are providing it free as bait to covertly invade. USE WITH CAUTION - there are no options would you like to install ...
The editor comment on the money. -
"Comes with unwanted browser helper object."
Version: EditPad Lite 7.2.3
Pros
The product is deserving of a good review but I wouldn't recommend it to anyone because it comes bundled with an objectionable extra program that truly alters the browsing experience for the worse - much worse...
Cons
Even after selecting custom installation (to make sure nothing extra came with the software) GetSavin 5.0 by AdPeak was installed in the background.
Summary
A very well designed program is totally marred by being bundled with a hidden download of tracking software.

"It comes in not alone. Blekko too."
Version: EditPad Lite 7.2.3
Pros
Quite pretty program.
Cons
It changed my browsers settings and Blekko's toolbar appeared without me asked.
