Five years and version 2.0.3.10221, still infected...and still zero improvements to the software. Still doesn't have even basic cd burning features. Make an audio CD? Nope. Bluray? Nope!

Alcohol is for imaging discs and burning disc images if you remember. Maybe it will do more things in the future but that's up to its owners.

For God's shake, just don't install it if you don't want it. Is it so much complicated?
Sure, just send me my $54 back and I'll shut up and go away.
Version 2.0.3.11012, and 5 1/2 years later...still infected. Still no improvements or features added.

Smart File Advisor may be considered as adware, I don't think it is a trojan horse however. Luminati?

They detect it as adware I suppose. As for Luminati it is the first time that I hear of it, perhaps someone else can tell you more about this.

Luminati is an addon that allows the user to receive extra virtual drives for letting the program/service use the users free resources, this is only on the Free and Trial Version, you can choose during the installation not to use or in Alcohols settings under General.
The screenshots show where you can do this in Alcohol at Use device resources.

It is supposed that if you install it you can set a bigger number of virtual drives in the Alcohol's options.

Thanks for sharing! I completely agree. Removing 'Smart File Advisor' is definitely a smart move for better file managment.

The paid versions of Alcohol don't have either of them. Also they are not viruses, they do what they do and you may not like or need it but don't call them viruses.
Anyway:
