Cnet's Download.com and the installer scam
cmpm:
From PcWinTech's Facebook Page
Brothersoft.com has gone the same path as Cnet and now has all their downloads as toolbar installers. Just like I did with Cnet I have asked them to remove every one of my programs. This is a good reason why I use majorgeeks.com as my main mirror. They treat users right.

Not really surprised.. as I said, CNET set the standard. They had a moral obligation as the largest download site.

I'd rather they hosted their files with more respectable services... (Rapidshare or Hotfile.) :)

Thanks, cmpm. I've sent Brothersoft a nasty-gram as well. :mad:

The smarter would be to do as others are, capitalize on being one of the few remaining download sites who has not sold out. Users appreciate that -- especially in a download site you are 'trusting' to get your software, and perhaps take recommendations from.
