[QUOTE="Caitlin, post: 386758, member: 36479"] I used that website to find Malwarebytes & ccleaner a very long time ago... didn't realize they also hosted safe downloads. This could have saved me from the crap I went through when I just installed Vuze (maybe) Want to mention that in my case non of the other unwanted programs or toolbars downloaded but it reverted my firefox settings to a previous state. There was no extension installed but I believe Vuze keeps files inside of your Firefox profile somehow because it was drastically altered when I installed it...bookmark links that I had removed were there again, themes that were on my old OS were suddenly on this one. Either that or it was a side effect of Vuze downloading Java, which I didnt have on this OS since I just did a clean install 2 days ago. (with completely copied over old Firefox profile) Just thought I'd mention it here for people thinking of downloading Vuze with the internet installer... dont :) Use those majorgeeks links that were kindly provided! Or better yet download a different open source torrent client... that was how I handled this. Why deal with something that doesnt respect you when you have more polite alternatives! I got Tixati and I love it (and it looks awesome because its black background against bright green and stuff lol) [/QUOTE]
