Does SARDU contains malicious Adware "Win32/Somoto.A"?
It's reported at pendrivelinux (look under WARNING!)
Is it true?
What can this adware do?
What I risk?

the irony is the most likely users of SARDU are IT technicians trying to fix slow computers infected with spyware, viruses, browser hijackers, and the product they want to use to fix them is now going to mess up their own PC as well.

Authors perogative to receive recompense for their time and effort in development, but should really come with a prominent warning on the homepage, to stop people blindly clicking next next and finding their homepage changed.

xboot from now on.

The irony is that technicians use a tool made by one seller of wine and liqueurs. This has succeeded in creating something that the technicians can not do.
The irony is that technicians save time by charging the same price without their ability.
The irony is that techincians use my program in violation of the license (free only for personal use)
The irony is that technicians are leecher who ask ask and ask for free.

I thank you for your efforts so far Davide, and I hope someone else will pick up the idea of a multi-boot software, but it may be time for you to give up this hobby and find another that you might enjoy more.

Including spyware is dishonest, regardless of your rationale.

Writing free software is not financially fulfilling for most developers. You should do it if you feel you want to give something back, for all the free software you use yourself every day.

Go ahead and take a hike mate, we'll be better off without you.

Next version of SARDU will be without toolbars.
SARDU haven't spyware, sardu propose toolbars in the same method that use Java, flash etc...but...you are not able to understand
SARDU is free only for personal use, do you know creative commons?
