Trial version without using CNet?

I want to get the trial version of Object dock but every time i click the "get the free version" button
I am redirected to CNet. I dont want to download from CNet as I do not trust them, and I do not
trust those installer applications they use just so they can get their software on my computer.

Is there a stardock download site I can use instead please? as lately all the CNet software
I install starts asking me if I want this or that rubbish to be installed as well.
Also they purposely use confusing terms on some of their downloaders in order to get you to
install stuff that you dont need.

The download on CNET does not have the additional CNET installer or additional CNET apps.  It is the unmodified installer from Stardock.

I stand corrected, you are right it doesnt. I mistook the 20.8Mb to read 20.8Kb

However my observations on the integrity of Cnet stand I still wouldnt trust em as far as I could throw em
these days.

+1 I haven't used c|Net in years

 BTW, you can also get Stardock software from filehippo.com , a much less underhanded and far more trustworthy site.
