Search Settings plugin installed w/o users knowledge along with Yahoo search
I am sorry to have to repeat this once again, but PDFCreator does not install the toolbar if the user does not want it. Just thinking of course is not enough. The installer screen says in bold letters "If you do not want to install the toolbar, please diable it in the componen list on the next screen". The ones complaining here do not seem to read this. If you follow this instruction, you will under no circumstance get the toolbar. If you have installed it, you can simply uninstall it from the browser or the system control panel.
kind regards,
Philip
I read the instructions. I followed the instructions. I chose to install the toolbar because I thought I was getting a PDF converter. I would not have installled the toolbar if I had known that the PDF Converter toolbar also included a search engine hijacker.
My previous comments reflect my displeasure at the underhanded way in which your browser extension took over key word searches and bypassed my browser configuration settings. And in addition to this the browser extension responsible for the hijacking is labeled with the false description - "Protects your default search settings"
If you spend a little time searching google with "pdfforge malware" (as I wish I had done before installing PDF Creator) then you will read that others are also disappointed by this additional feature.
How you conduct your business is up to you, but I believe you are doing yourself a disservice.
