FREE Great Programs for Windows 7 [2]

For whatever it's worth, the fix still seems to be working so I'm a happy camper.

I'm thinking the same thing Steve, the timing seems more than a coincidence.

Shawn would be the one to Thank. :)

On it!

Is anyone else having the same problems with this thread I am having? It keeps showing up in my New Subscribed Threads list every time I click on my User CP showing Kari as the latest poster (and it has been quite some time since he last posted in here). Every time I see this thread listed, which is every time I click on User CP, and click on this thread, it takes me to my last post (#611), which is at the top of page 62 on my computer, even if I've already read the entire thread and no one else has posted.

Try unsubscribing from the thread and clearing your cache, then re-subscribe to see if it helps.

Thanks Derek I have the same problem with the help thread :)

I downloaded CDBurnerXP and was about to install it when the Terms and Conditions included the word "Candy". Remembering that this thread had removed imgburn because they were under the Candy umbrella, I did not install it.

Perhaps CDBurnerXP should also be de-listed.

Thank you. CDBurnerXP removed from list. :)

Curious. The updates for CDBurnerXP appear to be "Candy" free. It's a good thing I keep all of my downloaded program installation files.

I've never had a problem due to Open Candy. All it ever does is "offer" to install PUPs but gives the option to opt out of them if you pay close attention when installing the program you want.

Unchecky helps too.

True that! I've been using it for quite a while.

Same here. I still use Imgburn.

If you end up with a PUP for other software then follow this as an example
