   Review - Vista Codec Package

   6.0.0 (Sep 19, 2011)

   Well, while installing it *asked* me whether I wanted to install
   
   1. the ask toolbar
   2. weatherbug
   
   both of which I de-selected, and I got no junk on my system. Maybe the people blindly clicking on "accept" or "agree" to everything ought to be more careful while installing.
   
   I certainly don't look upon this kind of program behaviour as spyware.
   
   It does what it claims, only negative for me was, contrary to its' author's words, it changed all associations to open with media player upon opening the control panel for the first time.
   
   To the author: State clearly what you are doing! you state on your website "It does not install a player program and does not associate filetypes" - latter part of the assertion is no longer true.
   
   Three stars for the above.

   Review - Win7codecs

   3.0.7 (Sep 14, 2011)

   As a long-time user of this particular codec pack, (been using since v2 thereabouts) I would like to say that this does not have "bundled malware" as some people (or paid shills, if you like) are insinuating.
   
   Whatever adware if any recommended can be easily skipped or declined during the install. LOOK before you click next (*&^ ret***s!).
   
   This, together with x64 components does a stellar job on Win7 x64. Similiarly Vista Codec Pack does a very good job on Vista & XP!
   
   And in answer to a very obvious question I'm not from the US, UK or EU. I'm from the orient, and have no connections to the author. I am a satisfied user, though.
