I realized today that the newest update of Webshots (a program that displays wallpapers on your PC) includes a new Python 2.5 service that installs and runs in the background.

Not that I have anything against Python in itself, but I really don’t want Webshots running a Python service on my computer. A service? For what? Downloading wallpapers?

I’m sick and tired of software behaving like they owned my computer, and can stuff a zillion icons on the desktop, the start menu, under my pillow, create folders in c:\ (c:\msocache, anyone? Anyone?) and drink the milk in my fridge without permission.

Webshots is now uninstalled. More will follow. More will follow.
