Why was mackeeper & zipcloud installed with Firefox update?
After installing the latest Firefox update Mackeeper and Zipcloud pop-ups presented themselves. A quick search found LOADS of warnings about Mackeeper and I've uninstalled it. Were they in the .dmg Firefpx installer? And if so why?

Installers from Mozilla.org only install Mozilla programs.
Where did you get your installer from? Are you sure those were in the installer?
It’s very sad, but many of the software down-loaders / installers will trick you into installing not only their program, but other programs as well. You have heard of the fine print in shady contracts, right? Well, some installers you need to look at the itsy bitsy teeny weeny fine print. You are thinking you are giving the installer permission to install the program you want by using the recommended option. But if you use the Manual Option Instead, you discover all kinds of stuff that you do not even know what it is or what it does. From now on, everyone needs to Use The Manual Option to put a stop to this.
