Never heard of it, have you? That’s because I’m making a name for it right now. If anyone out there has tried to download a program like Adobe Acrobat or Flash Player, you may have noticed there’s now a pre-selected option to also install additional program like McAfee Security Scan.

You don’t really need that, do you?

Yeah, me either. So make sure you un-check it before you hit that download button.

I venture that we’ll be seeing more of this type of “tag along” software in the future, so always make sure to read carefully before agreeing to anything!

Just a heads up.
