Sure, but given that it was previously claimed that the ads were branded
with its name, it’s a tad unlikely that would be deliberately delayed.

MUCH more likely that it doesn’t do that anymore, if it is the one that used 
to do that.

You have always been, and always will be, completely and utterly irrelevant, 
as always.

What you may or may not choose to put on your PC in spades.

What matters is if there are any that do that job better and are free.
