-{ Quote: "Would you think that a program that hides misleadingly named entries in inappropriate areas of the registry is trustworthy? Me neither, but TRUSTe does.

TRUSTe is a nonprofit organization set up to help Internet users determine who is worthy of their trust, in commerce or other areas on the Web. The company sells a number of seals that you might see when interacting with Web sites. These seals are meant to show that the site adheres to TRUSTe's standards for Web privacy, e-mail privacy and other such concerns." }-Story (http://www.eweek.com/c/a/Security/Can-You-Trust-TRUSTe/)

This same type of forced installation to get a coupon is also done with Cottonelle. If you want 50 cents off your next purchase, you have to install this program into your PC to print it out. Why don't you just show it as a regular graphic display? For a 50 cents discount, I said, NO THANKS. >:( :thumbd:
