Digsby Joins the Dark Side, Uses Your PC to Make Money
The popular Digsby instant messenger client not only bundles half a dozen "optional" crapware applications, it's also using your computer to crawl the web, do stock market research, and more. It's time to uninstall.
Bundling Crapware is a Despicable Business Model
Many popular freeware applications bundle crapware into their setup files, prompting you during the installation process to install something that nobody wants—like the Yahoo/Ask.com/SomeRandomCompany browser toolbar. Tech-savvy users may consider this nothing more than an annoyance, but this practice preys on unsuspecting or less knowledgeable users that click "Next" through every setup screen, and the makers of any software that do this should be ashamed of themselves.
Digsby takes bundled crapware to a whole different level, however. During the install you are prompted for not one, not two, but six different pieces of junk software, and then for good measure they offer to replace your home page with something terrible and take your search engine down a notch.
Don't think it's all that bad? Here's an example of one of the bundled crapware applications—a piece of software that tracks everything you are searching online and shows you "offers" in a sidebar window. Does that really sound like something anybody anywhere would ever want?

Hm, samo mi sad nesto nije jasno, posto koristim Digsby.
Da, pri instalaciji stvarno moze da prevari neiskusne korisnike jer nudi 5-6 vrsta junk aplikacija.
A u slucaju da sve te aplikacije koje dolaze ignorisu i neinstaliraju, da li je i sam core program Digsby stetan?
Da li sam IM client Digsby bez ovih aplikacija salje podatke o searchu?
Sto kaze rapha, vise nego dobro radi posao. Ja sam se preporodio sa njim, i ne bih da ga menjam ukoliko nije neophodno...

U Help->Support Digsby ima opcija Help Digsby Conduct Research to bi valjalo isključiti tj disejblovati.
A za ostale stvari treba biti oprezan prilikom instalacije i tamo ih isključiti.

Razmišljam da ga ponovo instaliram, ali se dvoumim. Je l' sada malo bezbedniji?
