I think they are capturing all of my key strokes. Why else trap and re-route to the eBay link e.g. eBay id's, passwords, searches,etc. NASTY, just Nasty. If you find this on your desktop, change your eBay and PayPal passwords immediately. Steve I found this Icon and the re-direct to http://www.adon-demand.de/red/2303/.

I didn't notice it, but maybe I wasn't sufficiently paying attention! Still an odd link to install, given it goes to eBay via a third party. Thanks.

I always clear it and click Finish :) I think you’ll find they DO ask if you want the icon, last page of the install wizard, little checkbox for eBay link on desktop.
