  1. I'm bumping this thread (no need to start a new one on the subject I think) to express my concerns too. I clearly understand that adding a crapware (let's call a dog a dog, right ?) is a way for you to earn a bit of money. Problem is, that toolbar phones home before we can even say "no I don't want to install that useless toolbar". Yes, before we can decline its installation. I know bundling toolbars into freeware apps is getting more and more common these days, but that doesn't make it a good move. Not being a click happy user is a thing, not watching the network activity of the installer is another. That "phone home" thing cleary does make your app an adware, sorry if you don't like that word, but even if we don't install it, Ask is still informed (unless you have a good firewall that warns you). I'm clearly on the side of users who would donate as your dedication clearly needs to be rewarded but now, why would I donate knowing that you're getting money anyway from Ask ? If you want to earn money from the work you're doing (or simply raise the level of donations), why don't you just offer premium support to those who donate ? Or just move from freeware to shareware ? Right now it looks more like : "Yes, it's freeware, but please donate. Oh and please install that toolbar.". We're getting freeware because they're free as implied by their license. I don't understand why developers would go the freeware way if they're going to bundle toolbars, sponsors links... Still, that doesn't change the fact that your app is a gem. But now I refrain myself for recommending it as most of my friends won't see that phoning home "feature".
  2. That's what I do Thanks for the answer
  3. Hi there, I just need a hint on how to burn a folder with all its subfolders but one (or two). Let's say I have this : - Photos - Photos/SubPhotos 1 - Photos/SubPhotos 2 - Photos/SubPhotos 3 - Videos - Videos/SubVideos 1 - Videos/SubVideos 2 - Videos/SubVideos 3 And I'd like to see that in the burnt DVD : - Photos - Photos/SubPhotos 1 - Photos/SubPhotos 2 - Videos - Videos/SubVideos 1 - Videos/SubVideos 2 Thanks !
