I really wish you would provide your users a direct link to the full installer and without any extra toobar add on crap!!

I totally respect that you have to include these options for add on toolbars to make money. I mean I don't expect you to release new features without making any money.
But you got to also understand that most users of not just Light Image Resizer but all software hate when these toobar add ons are included :)

The main point of my post was to make sure there is always a direct link on obviousidea.com for the full Offline installer. I have notest that at random times instead of getting the full offline installer I instead get what looks like a download manager which then allows me to download Light Image Resizer along with a bunch of other software that I don't want.

I notest that other web sites like Majorgeeks and Betanews seem to offer the full offline installer for Light Image Resizer. So when I can't download it from obviousidea.com I just get it from these web sites. However I usually like to download it directly from obviousidea.com to make sure I am getting the most up to date version.

O and yes I have been a register user for years now :)

I hope I did not upset you in anyway becasue that is not what I was trying to do :)

Actually I understand your point but this special link without any bundle won't be very visible. some shareware site are also adding their own downloader ( but not betanews.Com )

I m not upset, just desesperate to find the right balance, in most package you can skip the bundle you just need to pay attention to it. but we are working to make sure we have quality partners and we never cheat by installing something you didn't accept.

you need to contact the antivirus and tell them its false positive so they can remove this message with their next database update...
