Others can still use it to get access to your PC from. Standard programs like this give security issues, even if they aren't really in theirself (not the case with IE
). But with closed source you can't delete it. You'll never will. As long as you're using windows you'll be sort of Bill Gates' puppet. You'll use your PC as he wants. Don't like it, don't use it. Same with other closed source. In linux I can watch old realplayer files in mPlayer but for the new ones I have to use realplayer. Same thing.

Can't agree more. No matter how they got in this position, they did it. If they'll keep that position I don't know but you at least have to acknowledge their success.
