If I was after some sort of reader , editor, or generic software, I would always go to Gizmo's- they would warn you if something was bundled if OpenCandy(and if it installed it anyway even after you declined it), how products compared, etc-
And were trustworthy.
With their loss, there's nothing the public can use that pre-vets software, across as many broad categories.
And, knowing what to look for is important. As asking every single one of the masses to grab vmware /virtualbox + sandboxie, and then the tools to see if a program does stuff it shouldn't be anyway, while checking out every single competitor to something to see what best serves a purpose....
No, this is a very large loss for the community, and will hurt some very badly going forward...
