Re: Yawn

Handloclast, sorry. I did over react. I intended to convey that these scum steal other people's work and put a wrapper round it. Maybe it needed to be taken in context with my earlier posts. I should, had I thought of it, have added that they are really doing the same thing that used to happen with popular freeware programmes a decade ago - with scum like these (possibly the same ones) charging to sell freeware that could be downloaded without any charge at all. Except now they charge the advertisers - and it should be a matter of automatic acceptance that any advertised product promoted by this stuff is de facto a pile of crap. In fact, anything promoted by crap adverts forced onto "apps" is almost certainly as crappy as the advert.
