Your site says: No Spyware. No Adware. Guaranteed.
hmm, 'and' what do we call the
'hidden' Netshare & auto-updates, how close is that to spyware and secret manipulation of the person's program & bandwidth.
Looking inside the FW program, how much does it link to hidden remote links.
Resembles something I've seen before with another similar program that could be partly remotely controlled.
The FW barbed-wire 'nazi'-like icon say anything. Is that registered too? lol
(edit: seems a previous post in another thread vanished.)
If the FW bootstrap server(s) went down, how good would FW be for connecting?
Sleepless' posts speak for themselves for adware so no need for me to add to it. Except the obvious false claims on the FW website. And lack of warnings to users they are actually
by default installing a whole bundled package of stuff (adware), not just a simple p2p sharing program. Ask toolbar
is adware & to claim FW 100% has no adware is being dishonest when it is being installed by default.
Welcome to Ask Toolbar, we are offering extras in a whole bundled package when you install such as Candy & FrostWire. lol Quote:

Isn't that also using others bandwidth without them necessarily knowing? Manipulation of their bandwidth.
(I know Vuse/Azureus used to do this, but they are a torrent only program. I think in recent times they may have stopped sharing updates via torrents.)
