It was all the more frustrating when download portals started wrapping their software downloads in adware wrappers which means instead of you just downloading the setup installer like before, you download a small executable which offers various adware and junk before downloading the real installer for you. Most people understand the need for developers to make money, but some software installers have become quite devious and all but trick ordinary users into installing their wares. The problem also isn’t just about inadvertently getting this junk installed onto your computer, in some cases such as the Babylon toolbar, it’s also about getting rid of it effectively again. Most computer users would probably agree that the rise in recent years of adware and extras such as toolbars and other options while installing software has become a growing menace.
