Sorry, this really ticks me off! I am sick of all the extra crap being put into software bundles that I have to specify not to be installed. Its either google toolbar, which is the biggest one, or yahoo toolbar or something else thats just spyware. These business practices designed to get on your machine are suspect to me and very annoying. If I wanted google toolbar, I would have downloaded it and installed it my self, I don't need something else trying to install it.
