I installed the Freemake Video Downloader, Video Converter and YouTube Mp3 Converter within a sandbox
environment (Windows Vista/Sandboxie).
Installation was done as a custom install and as such preventing the embedded browser toolbars to install.
The programs work flawlesly.
But as other users already noticed, winPcap was also installed (why?)
Futhermore when starting one of these programs connect to:
(detected by using Wireshark)
www.freemake.com
crl.omniroot.com
centrevoc.vo.msecnd
ocsp2.globalsign.com
ocsp.comodoca.com
productionbalancer-694851695.us-east-1.elb.amazonaws.com
ocsp.verisign.com
Conclusion: these programs contain spyware.
