    "Browser hijack installed without permission!"

    August 18, 2012  |   By robert1085

    Pros

    Does a good job converting what you need. However...

    Cons

    The installation of a browser hijack without explicit consent from the user is wrong and a deceitful practice.

    Ask.com browser hijack was installed without asking me if I wanted to install it. Some will say that this install is prompted, but I watched for it. It was not there and installed without permission.

    Summary

    Pirate, these guys sneak around you to make their fifteen cents per installation.
