Does anyone know where I can find a clean install for Vuze on Linux? I downloaded http://cf1.vuze.com/files/VuzeInstaller.tar.bz2 and thankfully I installed it on a clean VM. After the install, my browser was redirected to Yahoo! (Yuck!), AdBlock, Ghostery, BitDefender, HTTPSeverywhere, and others were disabled, plus a couple of new extensions were installed I had never heard of. I'm not sure what other malware may have been installed on the system itself, that was bad enough. I blew off the VM since it was probably corrupted.
So, anyone else have experience with Vuze downloads? I used to have a clean Vuze install and got by on regular updates of the jar file through the Beta program, so no malware. Is malware the norm now? If so, I will declare Vuze useless and move elsewhere. Not worth the hassle. It used to be a great product.
