Carefully went through the installer and made sure to not agree to the mcafee TOS and refuse the install. in the list of actions, it was not included, however it installed anyway. There's not even any notification it's been installed or that it's running. Just noticed it in the process list an hour ago with files created last night when I installed CE 6.8.1. Siteadvisor uninstall does not work correctly. Program folders and registry entries are left fully intact. Have to delete a bunch of folders and keys by hand to actually get rid of it. It even keeps a backup copy of the installer.

Can you please stop the non-sense? Yeah, I get it's a revenue stream, fair enough, but this shouldn't be force installing shovelware when I take the time to refuse the program in the installer.

I don't mean any disrespect, I appreciate using CE from time to time, but this is bullshit. I am absolutely sure I refused the TOS for Mcafee.

during installation some offers show a screen with an underlined piece if text that says :"click here to change configuration"
click it and you'll be able to choose to not install it
