I wrote Afterdawn informing them how Super took control of my computer during its install, you can read my description below Afterdawn’s reply letter.
Afterdawns reply starts here: Thank you for contacting us. Some other people have reported this to us, too. However we tested it on one of our Win7 PCs here and it caused no problems, altho suggesting we to install an adware during the installation process (but by simply checking that the box wasnt ticked was enough
to prevent it). Is this something you experienced .. or?
I made the actions of Super very clear, my email to AD.com starts here: It is your obligation to test this program again. It is your obligation to test this program again. Assisting or ignoring the spread of malicious software is an unforgivable act.
You could not have tested the same file I downloaded from your server. This/my computer is a fresh install of Win7 64, with Microsoft Security Essential and AVG 2013 running with real time protection. This is my company’s video editing computer; it never sees unknown/porn websites.
After opening that setup file, I had no control of my mouse as the install was controlling it, constantly moving it to the edge of the screen. If I moved my mouse, it would shoot back to the edge of the screen. This kept me form closing the install.
The install also, Tab-ed its way through more than one (Next button), then toggling the (I accept) on more than one checkbox, accepting whatever it wanted.
Using Task Manager was also not helpful, as the install instantly regained focus. The only way I stopped the install was to shut down the OS by holding the power button.
I have no other Free/trialware on my computer aside from Avisynth, and Virtualdub, while waiting for one of the downloads to start, I saw Super as one of the suggested program to try. I was there getting program for testing render speeds against Adobe Media Encoder. Now, I know you are not going to tell me Avisynth, or Virtualdub is behind this type of behavior.
It is your obligation to test this program again. Assisting or ignoring the spread of malicious software is an unforgivable act.
