Samsung Kies: Even the Developers Don't want to Take Credit!

I've written before about how terrible Samsung Kies is. It makes a mockery out of the Samsung hardware which I find to be very good.

Recently I noticed a new program called "fuspredownloader.app" appear in my Mac startup items which I didn't recognise. Being constantly on high alert for anything new which I wasn't aware of I investigated it's origin. Right click and 'Show in Finder' reveled it was part of the Kies software.

Looking into what it was actually for revleaed the following in Contents\Resources\en.lproj\Credits.rtf

Engineering:
Some people

Human Interface Design:
Some other people

Testing:
Hopefully not nobody

Documentation:
Whoever

With special thanks to:

So finally it's revealed why the who package is so terrible! Perhaps the team weren't aware this is added by the XCode Project Template by default...
