lol...don't get too carried away joe...all you have to do is extract the whole thing somewhere else first then manualy put it in yourself i never run an exe straight in anyway you don't know what's lurking inside...
but youv'e got a good point though they should not do this type of thing...outragous

Its not so bad for me. I actually like the new splash screen(thank goodness). But I cant stand the plane! Its really hard to control, it stalls easy, it takes forever to get off the ground and the VC is crap. I hate it.

Well, as the old saying goes, nothing in life is "free"

So with this freeware they install an advertisement if you do not do it the correct way and download into  a temp file

My science lab teacher used to be friends with Bert Rutan. He used to fly planes at an experamental aircraft place where Bert Rutan was too.

You know, you shouldn't be mad at the creator.  They may have put in a splash screen with ads, but from what was said in the other thread you started in the FS2004 forum, the ReadMe stated that it was going to do that.  So . . .

ALWAYS READ DOCUMENTATION!

(Yes, this is me, being a jerk.  Anyone surprised? )
