Just went back to re-test this one and it's once again bundling RelevantKnowledge and WhenU's SaveNow

Thought I had a thread already on here for this, but couldn't find it if I do :?

Oh dear ....... just grabbed the latest version of this and;

1. It STILL comes with RelevantKnowledge
2. It NOW ALSO comes with AdVantageSetup

http://analysis.seclab.tuwien.ac.at/res ... 8337bcf1ee

WhenU/SaveNow, no longer appears to be present (though they've kept it's bmp filename, and just used it for AdVantage instead)

There is STILL nothing in the licence that mentions these "additions".

Trying to figure out where AdVantageSetup comes from, but KiwiAlpha is apparently from;

npssoftware.com

.... tis a new one as I'm pretty sure it didn't used to be ....

Couple years old, but I'd not seen it before so thought I'd add it for historical clarity;

Seems to have gotten worse by the looks of it

... and nope, I'm not using Avast through choice ;) (NOD AV trial ran out and I can't afford the licence atm)
