#Install zipcloud install
I installed it the first time I installed DIVX, I nearly did it again tonight on the new version, but after the installer was running for DIVX and I had inadvertently agreed to install ZipCloud, I couldn't cancel it! - There is no cancel button to abort, and the 'red' cancel dot does nothing. In some ways this is a cold 'free' sell/install of a product the user probably doesn't want. This means they will be accidentally unwittingly installing ZipCloud as part of the DIVX install, probably wont notice it until some sort of pop-up or notification appears, and they will then think it is spam ware or could be malicious. The problem with DIVX installer is most users will (like a PC user) click Continue/Next to get the application to install, putting the SKIP button as the left button of the two on that form will mean the INSTALL button is in the place most users would expect to see NEXT or CONTINUE. They own up to it but it's still a little sneaky. The problem is that their "opt in" is apparently not very obvious or people wouldn't accidentally opt in.
#Install zipcloud software
We are planning on offering a paid Ad-free version of our DivX Software in a future version which will eliminate the offers and Ads in the DivX Software. We want to continue to offer our users a great experience with our free DivX Software and we appreciate your feedback. I have attached a few screenshots of the optional offers in the Mac Installer process. If you accept the offer it will be installed on your system and if you skip it the optional offer will not be installed. These offers are always optional and you have the ability to decline/skip the offers during the installation process (Please read carefully before clicking next).
These offers help keep our software free for our users and hopefully brings to attention some useful apps that our users may like. We are sorry if you are dissatisfied with the DivX Software, with our most recent software release (10.3.1) we updated our Mac installer system to now include third party app offers during our install process. FYI, I wrote Divx and received this reply.
