I was burning a video project and there on the progress box is an advert to upgrade to PD12, I thought I'd take a look. As soon as I clicked it another window popped up saying 'Welcome to your new browser' it looked like it was about to install the Bling crap. I managed to stop it but then another box popped up say something had tried to change my internet settings and it would set it back to Bling again for me! I am fairly PC savie so I stopped all this and it looks like no damage has been done. I had an episode of the Bling bar a while ago and don't want that again. I won't click that again.

wrong section. likely to get overlooked. ads inside cyberlink products are linked to cyberlink website. unlikely to be the fault of cyberlink must be something else.

You mean bing? That's from Microsoft. You must have checked it upon installation.

I have never asked for or checked a box for Bing as far as I know. It's not a problem as it all seems to have gone, I just wondered why, when I clicked for information about PD12, all these boxes popped up and wanted to change my settings.
