New Minion 3.0 has advertisements???

Why?
Did a quick browse through the minion homepage and saw nothing mentioning that, and the image at the minion homepage conveniently shows nothing but a blank area where the ads are in the real thing.
Just found the hide advertisements button at the bottom before I hit post, but they still have them and I know soon that you will not be able to hide the adds. Its common for any free app that suddenly includes adds

As a casual player I was satisfied that at one point I had a char max level and near max crafting with almost all motifs and I pretty much lost interest. Then ESO discovered DLC's and now my main is just a wanabe and I am happily pulled back into the game.

✭✭✭✭✭Probably because we all adblock everything on the internet these days and they would still like some money to cover server costs.
Not sure how this even effects anything though, open, update, add new add-ons, close.@Turelus - EU PC Megaserver

Nah i actually just googled minion at the first try, second was with eso then.
Barely using any addons. I kinda liked the original approch of zos to give less information to the players.0 -

On the update notifier/prompt window there was a list of all the new features, in it said there would be ads. You would probably get the appropriate attention at their site instead of the ESO forums

I can't download either the 64bit or 32bit windows versions. Norton 360 says they're unsafe and automatically deletes them.
How do I tell them this??? Looked on the website - very little there. The help/support link just gives installation or usage instructions. How do I report a problem?

Norton is a bit of a "helicopter parent", you need to tell Norton to allow it in your Norton settings, not complain to the makers of the utility.Edited by Epona222 on May 29, 2016 2:47AMGM - Ghost Sea Trading Co - NA PC

Deheart✭✭✭I have come across a couple of reports that the new minion is doing all kinds of secret spyware type activities on reddit but my AVG is not reacting to Minion at all so, eh.
@Bluepitbull13 I missed that, which is usual since I tend to rely on the websites themselves that apps come from for info rather than the compressed update notes for major new features, which backfired on me this time.

Your antivirus will never react to it because when you installed it, you gave it full hard drive and web socket access. In other words, it can do anything it pleases.0 -
randolphbenoit✭✭✭✭I have Bitdefender Security and lifetime edition of Superantispyware pro on my system and so far no issues with the new app. Also since I only open minion once a month the ad has no effect on my life

Every antivirus has option to choose programs you want it to ignore.
On the side, new Minion has got dark skin now and this advert can be hid so no issues whatsoever now.
