    "Sneaky Installer"

    May 28, 2013  |   By EditPad_Bad

    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."

    March 25, 2013  |   By Lia2

    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.

    Version: EditPad Lite 7.2.3

    Pros

    Quite pretty program.

    Cons

    It changed my browsers settings and Blekko's toolbar appeared without me asked.
