More than 63% of people accept End User License Agreements without reading the text. Do NOT install any software on your PC without first reading the EULA!
End-User License Agreement - This is a legal contract between you and the software manufacturer! Notice the word legal. This means software companies can legally infect your computer with spyware! All you have to do is press "OK" or "I ACCEPT" and the wonders of data installation and manipulation take place without notice.
Example:
... by installing the Software on your computer, you understand that: (i) certain system non-personally identifiable information, including statistical data, stored on your computer will be made available and transmittable to our servers or the servers of affiliated companies; (ii) other information available now or in the future including links, services, messages advertisements, cookies and the like may be installed on your computer and; (iii) we may automatically transmit to and install on your computer, Software improvements, corrections, adaptations, conversions to more recent Software versions or any other changes to the Software, with or without giving notice...
It's like giving permission for a thief to take an inventory of your property!
