POTENTIALLY UNWANTED program packed with DEAMON Tools LITE installer!

27.03.2013, 14:36

So, finally DAEMON Tools joins the pain killer pharmacy after all!

Just had an update to already installed DAEMON Tools LITE I had. It was okay to check out the advertisement and toolbar provider options with the installation.

BUT IT WAS NOT OKAY when I found "BETTER INSTALLER HOST" was offloaded to my system (C:\Users\F***_ME\AppData\Local\Temp\nsr76C7.tmp\bi_client.exe) and launched SILENTLY after DAEMON Tools LITE finished off updating itself and this ""BETTER INSTALLER HOST" was already connected to the internet downloading what it is meant for. ESET also detected "Win32/Somoto.A" packed within it... WOW...

GREAT & WELL DONE DEAMON TOOLS.
