The term crap/shovel-ware usually denotes pre-installed garbage no one ever asked for or used except the completely uninitiated. So it's not so much an indictment of the software itself but the way in which it was installed, which in turn made anyone with with any knowledge remove them ASAP without ever testing them like HP Games, which is still around today. I remember this bonzii buddy my ex-fiancée's mother would keep installing on her computer and then complain it was infected and acting crazy. I would inform her about the toolbar she kept installing and how it would in turn install heaps of other garbage. Her response? 'But I like it, he stays, just fix it.' I still hate that stupid purple mokey to this day. Check this[1] out ,this is extreme but it would definitely take up half or more of screen real estate.
