I cannot fully agree to that. If everyone exactly knew what Cydoor and Topmoxie is, it would be ok to say: Let us earn money that way or pay it to us. But the points are these:

*Cydoor: It is mentioned during setup, but:
1.) I have already told you about my cydoor experience, which involved everything up to file system errors and severe data loss. And I am by far not alone with that. A fair setup would not only talk about the intentions of a program, but also about severe side-effects due to poor coding, if they exist.
2.) Setup surely doesn´t mention, that cydoor comes from a company, that already lied to you once. I also wrote, that the bandwidth Cydoor used on my pc was FAR beyond the size of a few banners. This remains unexplained.
*Topmoxie: Leaving aside the issue of other advertising-powered companies, that work hard for -well- your money, this is screwing up the configuration of the browser. Side effects will be discovered soon, as it was the case with newdotnet.
