Microsoft forcing Windows users to install Desktop Search? (October 25, 2007)Source: Mac Net Journal (http://www.whiterabbits.com/MacNetJournal/)
The Register has an short piece today that helps explain one of the little computer surprises I encountered with my Windows PC at work today.
A few weeks ago I set up Google Desktop on my machine, so I would finally be able to find things on my PC like I can do on my MacBook Pro. Google Desktop works fine, and it offers huge improvements over the search tools built into Windows XP (yes, we are still using XP at work, and I also have XP installed under Parallels Desktop on my Mac).
Oddly enough, this afternoon I noticed that there was another search tool running in the toolbar on my work PC. A right click on the search field showed that somehow Windows Desktop had been installed on my machine and finished indexing the hard drive without any intervention from me. That's right...I didn't install anything. I didn't agree to anything. But Microsoft took over my machine anyway.
Trust? Yeah...right. |
