I hate Bootstrapper!

Downloading Windows Live components like Windows Live Writer, Windows Live Messenger is fucking slow!!
No matter wtf you selected to download, you always get a ’small’ executable http://g.live.com/1rewlive/en/WLInstaller.exe, and this fucking bootstrapper will ’smartly’ download components background themself. I cannot select a proxy connection, or multi-theaded downloading using third-party tools. Bootstrapper inventors must have an ass in pain!!!!

Sniffering the damned WLInstaller.exe I found out that the HTTP request was encrypted, I cannot get the direct download address!!!!! Shit!!!

So does dowloading Adobe Flash Player OCX control !!
First you get a god-damn bootstrapper http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/get/flashplayer/current/ultrashim.cab
then you go to Macromedia site http://fpdownload2.macromedia.com/get/flashplayer/current/gtb/install_flash.foo.s. God knows what to do with the fucking install_flash.foo.s. It’s neither a valid win32 PE binary nor a compressed package.

Bootstrapper sucks!!!!!

I don’t know what shit is Microsoft and Adobe developers are eating, I cannot download those BIG install files through proxy to bypass firewall, I cannot download with a dowload tool like Orbit Downloader. Why they just can’t provide a complete OFFLINE install package?

Curse you all MS and Adobe !!!! Go To Hell!!!!
