wanting to install only programs they expect?


No it is the STUPID USERS who do not read the Disclaimer in software which clearly says it installs additional software which may collect personal info, monitor surfing, serve ads etc,

Dont install/support software with spyware.

I am on about programs which tells the user it contains spyware but the users just ignores it and installs anyway, weeks later they remove the software but spyware is lett behind then more weeks go by then the #### hits the fan and the user blaims Windows.
