Safari forced onto windows itunes users

When you have iTunes installed on your windows pc, and have the apple software update running, something fishy is going to happen to you if you do not watch out.

Apple's software update will install it's webbrowser Safari without asking you ! The list of software updates lists it, and it is selected by default, of course you can unselect it however most users rely on the software updates to function normally and click "Yes" without reading.

This drive by tactic is really bad, as users rely on software updates to do just that : Update software that they already have. Users do not expect their pc's to be hijacked so that apple can install it's latest crappy browser. Safari on the mac is ok, but lets face it, on the pc it is not.

Imagine that microsoft would pull the same trick on Apple users when updating ms-office on the apple ! You would be able to hear the screams of apple users all the way into dark Africa.

Shame on you Apple !
