General Software Discussion / Re: Google Books Downloader - WARNING - contains search hijack "arccosine.com"

« Last post by PhilB66 on March 19, 2012, 07:16 PM »

Thank you for the warning, IainB.

Google Books Downloader Website is at http://www.gbooksdownloader.com/. I thought CodePlex is for hosting .Net programs only. I guess not.

The installer has an opt out option though. Select 'custom' installation and deselect "arccosine". Sneaky, I know.

As for the program itself... it does download complete books (the free ones) and can convert them to other formats then just .pdf.

Btw, when I try to go to the CodePlex page I get a message about security certificate errors. Also, the installer is not digitally signed.

Doesn't look like Real Temp even monitors hard drive temperatures -- so that's a miss.

@nosh-FWIW, my GF's recollection is much the same. Every time we watch that flick her eyes are glued on Snake Pliskin. Anytime he's offscreen she goes back to reading her book.

It's Snake Plissken. Love the movie... will try to put my hands on a (legal) copy and watch it again. Thanks for mentioning it
