I already have some experience with OpenCandy and the point is that the option to unselect unwanted applications is so extremely well hidden you are guaranteed to oversee it if you are not a computer expert. That's what Avira means by "social engineering" by the way. Oh and did you know that the OpenCandy installer phones home? So even if you manage to unselect OpenCandy you are still being spied.

OpenCandy shows an ad during the installation process. The advertised software is installed optionally and is hand-picked by us. Also, if you don't want to this ad to be displayed, you may download the portable or disable OpenCandy. Please read Avira's and OpenCandy's description carefully. There is no spyware or malicious software included.

Thanks for the clear / honest statement.
So you are basically telling me that your "right" for profit maximization weights more than my right of not being infected with aggressive adware and spyware that uses social engineering to make me install this even if I don't want to.
Ok, then I will not use Dexpot and instead warn everyone about Dexpot.

at this point, this is no solution. We're in contact with OpenCandy. Let's see what they can do about it.

Hi,

I can't install Dexpot because my antivirus blocks it. It says "possible unwanted software/OpenCandy"

Solution: Please remove OpenCandy (aggressive adware / potential spyware / uses [url=https://www.avira.com/en/support-threats-summary/tid/26967/threat/PUA.OpenCandy]social engineering[/url]) from your software and use other, less aggressive and more reputable vendors for monetization.
