Esn 21:44, 30 January 2007 (UTC) Reply Thank you for your suggestion. I also agree with the above two comments, considering that adware and malware is generally unwanted (by the end users, at least) yet seems common in free download managers (closed source, at least). Call it "Require bundled software" or something if you think "malware" is POV - Guillaume777 04:23, 15 December 2006 (UTC) Reply I agree, adware-malware is very important information to know. I disagree with the decision to remove the adware/maware line a adware is a major concern for anywone considering using this type of software. Chris Cunningham 13:53, 19 July 2006 (UTC) Reply Chris Cunningham 13:34, 19 July 2006 (UTC) Reply I've removed the two offending fields and wikified the licences a bit. I'm rather more interested in other comparions, such as which programming language each app is developed in. adware is mentioned in the license field. A list and a comparison are two different things - one may need the one and not the other - a bad article should not be merged, deleted, etc but amended - are you really willing to compare all the programs listed ? Wouldn't this make the comparison page too cluttered ?

Stephanbim 10:00, 17 November 2006 (UTC) Reply I'll remove the merge tag since no one has agreed to your suggestion in more than 6 months. Merge to download managers? I disagree, both articles have different audiences. Merge to? Since the list has been rebuilt to be feature compare rather than Advertising, I don't think it'll need to merge now. This should be merged, though all entries in here that are not there should have their pros and cons listed.
