    Avira free keeps popping up asking me to INSTALL the toolbar or LEAVE FOR LATER
    If that doesnt go, then Avira is

    On my XP desktop, I pressed leave for later when asked. After a few updates and a few more leave for later presses, Avra has stopped pestering me about this toolbar thingy. Perhaps the aforementioned deny three times and it gives up is working:)

    It can reappear in some cases
    However, thats not the point so far as im concerned

    1 - theres no mention of 3 strikes from the Avira software
    2 - theres no 'do not install' option
    3 - its clearly to get people who know no better to install the ASK toolbar thinking its somehow helped

    I will never be happy about any software that tries more than once to force me to do something
    :idea:
