Safecart.com driverutilities.com deceptive and theft of funds for unwanted software hidden in their download, Internet
This company advertised system driver locater and installation software. Upon starting installation it started loading unwanted NORTON products and was actually looking to sell additional software. T hey offered no means to stop the program so in order to stop it I turned off the computer. I immediately called the phone number listed for support and after a one hour wait on hold I was told to send an email and a refund would be processed within 7 days.
I then received an email from driverutilities@driversupport .com They sent a disclaimer trying to avoid paying my refund.
Obviously a scam . Look at their web page 3o day free trial ??? In any event they continue to send emails to avoid the cancellation In addition I have now discovered they double billed me for the software. After speaking to the phone rep I immediately erased the programs from my system but I have no way to know if they installed any spy ware or malicious programs.

Update. I contacted their "processing " contractor SafeCart and they say they are now removing the charge and that there will not be a balance due. Not sure what did this but thank you for providing an outlet to apply pressure.
Of course , I am sure the poor and irresponsible business practices will continue.
