[osflash] Desktop Applications

[Peter Witham]

Hi,

I have seen plenty of apps out there (not certain but one might well  
of been from Adobe) that had no paid certificate and it has not  
bothered me any. I think it is safe to say a lot of people that  
download and install applications never pay any attention to those  
warnings (based on how many people seem to get infected with various  
fun stuffs). So personally I'd put an application out there without  
being too worried about it if I was just giving it away and I'd be  
sure to warn people on the page what to expect on the installer so  
they do not 'panic'. Although if I was selling something I would go  
the route of full certificate personally, firstly it looks more  
professional and secondly I think it's the ethical thing to do.

Just my two cents :)

Regards,
Peter Witham
