It's all about completely taking over your computer so you don't churn to another provider.... anyone remember AOL and their "free cd's" - just TRY uninstalling that shit.... good fucking luck.

My old county Comcast didn't make me install anything but in the new county I'm living, I was forced to. In order to get past their setup of the modem, I had to install software. I removed it right after but still a pain in the ass.
