Re: Not just laptops.
It's a symptom of people hating the Win8 start screen, not of malware. It makes sense that people who'll download and install anything would download it, but a lot of people get it because it's one of the most complete (and heavily advertised) free alternatives. I'm not a fan of it, but at least it's mostly just a mild adware that pushes its own app store ecosystem when you use it, it's not full of popups and trojans.
