    From author's page you can update/upgrade to - PSPad editor 4.5.8 (2453).

    Slow development.

    This is still an excellent editor, but unfortunately it doesn't come anywhere near Notepad++. My main problem is that it is STILL designed as a coder's editor with monospaced font capability only. I write code in Notepad++ using Verdana 9. If you need monospaced fonts to line stuff up, fine, allow that as an option - don't force it on your users. Still, 5 stars for being free and having lots of features.

    so we are rating the package/installer or the application itself.

    Go to their site and get the .cab file insteat, open it with 7zip and get the (portable) content out and you have it free of "spyware" as you call it.

    Enjoy this free, wonderful, software!

    @roj: Sadly, this is what 'freeware' has become. People want everything for free, BUT at some point a price is paid. Whether it is in the security and integrity of your PC (or the PC's of others that fall for bundle tricks), or support, or whatever... The 'snake' finally wandered into the garden, and that snake was in the form of bundles. Now they are everywhere, and NOT coming just from vendors. Thanks to CNET, the practice of download sites wrapping downloads in bundles is now common-place. I have the philosophical view that all these type bundles are deceptive in nature because they hope, rely, and encourage the user to accidentally install whatever the bundle is. Meanwhile, the user has no intent to download or install anything but the application in question. If they wanted whatever the bundle was, they'd go get it. Just my two cents.

    MALWARE VECTOR!!!!

    The RECOMMENDED Quick Install option wil SILENTLY install the BABYLON TOOLBAR into IE and Firefox. The installer is specifically tailored to do a SILENT install.

    If you choose the CUSTOM install, you will find three options to disable this intrusion.

    CHEAP TRICK Mr. Author.

    ONE star until you get rid of this or PROMINENTLY inform users of your deception in the install prompts.
