  1. Before you install Secunia's Personal Software Inspector (PSI)
  2.  
  3. This is a spyware/adware soft
  4. from their EULA:
  5.  
  6. "You agree to ensure that your registration details are true and accurate at all times. Specifically, you must notify us of any change to the registration details as originally supplied."
  7.  
  8. "By registering you provide acceptance that Secunia may use data on applications installed on your system and may provide you with additional information, like product offers etc."
  9.  
  10. "How amusing. Can you expect anything less than back doors and/or data collection/mining from proprietary software? It’s hilariously bad but people will thumb you down when you point out the faults in proprietary software.
  11.  
  12. My philosophy is this: Closed source (proprietary) software, even if offered as free, is a potential trojan horse on a person’s system which, even if the EULA never states it, could be root kitting, bot ting, or anything else and you can’t do a damn thing about it because YOU CANNOT SEE THE SOURCE CODE!
  13.  
  14. I believe anyone with half a brain would use *nix and update programs with one simple program with signed repositories.
  15.  
  16. Those with a smaller brain will continue to use a proprietary OS, and use proprietary software to lead them into the false belief their computer is clean/secure."
