You really shouldn't have an oligatory download connected to a posted link, IMO!  People should be able to choose whether it is what they want (peruse description) or check system requirements, etc.!  I clicked the link to see what it was all about and the program downloaded before I could stop it!

No prompt? I got a prompt...

It doesn't look malicious... Just out of curiosity, what OS are you running that would do something like that. Or more specifically, what browser or configuration within the browser? That sort of thing shouldn't happen anyway, in Milk's defense...

Now what does the thing do? Run macros? Was TSW talking about clicking sounds or mouse-clicks? I'm way confused here... :lol:

EZ Macros program for personalizing multi-tasks.  Multi-tasks that can be boiled down to mouse clicks.

No, not malicious.  Just thoughtless, perhaps irresponsible.  Site had a page with description of program, which really should have been the link.  Download from this page at your will, or not.

In my case, I would have preferred NOT.  I have a Mac, not a PC, and program is for Windows only.

No, I didn't get a prompt, but my download window popped up and I could have stopped it in the approximately 3 seconds it took to download.  Took me by surprise, the FIRSTtime.  I left the initial page to investigate site more thoroughly (program specs), then backtracked to original page, only to have program download AGAIN.

Download should not be obligatory, as a matter of principle, not to mention internet safety.

Wah wah wah. You've got your browser configured wrong. There should always be a "Do you want to download" window. I should have simply linked directly to the .exe, as that's the normal way to point people to software.

So, pack it in your ass with coleslaw.

How about a "for instance"?
