Remember that the person you're replying to is not a regular member of the group. They probably are also angry enough about Growl being installed on their system (and persistently reinstalled) that they don't really care what language restrictions you would put on them. All of the regular members of the group are better behaved than that, with the possible exception of Chris, who gets as pissed at being repeatedly accused of being a malware author as the users are who accuse us. Everyone who uses nasty words and sentences in these threads is doing so out of anger. We would all do well to remember that, and try to defuse the anger. We've seen where the thread leads when that doesn't happen. Responding in kind *does not help*. If you really, really want to respond in kind, like you feel like you're going to explode if you don't, write it up and then mail it to [email protected]. That way, you get it out of your system, and no harm is done on the list. > Also I would like to know how [Growl could] get on your system without your > [knowledge/permission] when you have Administrator privileges.

There are some applications that install Growl without the user's permission. We, the Growl developers, don't approve of this. We hate it as much as users do.
