A little update- I was installing Applian FLV player on my new computer. It uses Open Candy. Or at least I *think* it does. Looking in the EULA, it has something about OpenCandy. But I wasn't presented with any option other than installing their own premium version... so I'm not sure *what* that was about...
Do you have the Freecorder toolbar? I don't even know what that is. I don't have any toolbars in my browsers, though. And nothing was installed other than the FLV player. Applian Flv Player is bundled with FreeCorder Toolbar. No OC recommendations, just the EULA though.

Nitpicking? No, absolutely not. The obsession with spyware terminology, however, is a deviation from the real issue here. Fact is that OC is an Ad serving platform that also tracks your usage of software, monitors your actions and report this information back home. Arguing that others (Google, Adobe, Java, ....) do similar stuff does not (and should not) approve OC. Targeting the 'happy click next' ignorant crowd is not okay. What it actually does is setting a precedence for the rest of us who do think before clicking yes, read the EULA, etc. Next thing you hear, but everyone is using google, everyone is on FB... every installer is powered by OC (well, they wish).... got it? The comment about Sweet IM illustrates another issue I have with OC, developers have no control about what OC promotes and they do not care about the end user and would recommend anything that pays well.

So what you're saying is we need a new term to define things like OC? Here are a few... Ad Conduit, Usage Information Sniffer/Transferer, Privacy Intrusion Mechanism. That's what OC does. How it does what it does is not an issue (at least for me it's not). Just go through the advertisers list... Crawler Toolbar, My Shopping Genie, PriceGong, SweetIM.....sigh
