Default Opening Applications

You give no details of the applications that you have downloaded and wish
to install. Remember that there are few free lunches to be had and the
hidden price of many free applications is that you also install a sponsor
program which then provides revenue to the author of the application as a
result of the adverts or whatever that the sponsor delivers to your PC.
When installing an applications, free or otherwise, read the EULA
carefully (EULA = End User Licence Agreement) and only agree to it if you
understand what it has to say. Further if given the chance opt out of any
offered extras.

Alternatively look for an alternative source for applications that offer
you the functionality you want but without any unwanted overhead.

.......and don't forget that many of the "crapware" apps will install things
without your consent or knowledge, most all of which, do not come with
uninstallers. Highly suggest that you do a Google search for ("app name"
problems) or ("app name" spyware), or something similar. In most cases, you
won't have been the first person to have been stung by the malware. And, if
there is any doubt in your mind..........DON'T!
Heirloom, old and would rather pay for

Well......assuming that you have understood all of the evasive crap that
they have in their EULA, whereby they at any time can download 3rd party
junk.....or change their Terms and Conditions....and it is YOUR
obligation to seek out these changes, NOT theirs to let you know.......

Well....I guess it is obvious that I would NEVER, EVER do this, but it
is your computer and you can mess it up any way you want, lol. But
don't you DARE come back here and say "Help me get this crap off my

OK......second paragraph a bit over the top, but their EULA is nothing
but trouble. You have absolutely NO rights, so to speak......and I only

I think you'd be well advised to listen to Heather's and Heirloom's sage
advice and stay away from this software. Save yourself some grief.
