Koyotesoft makes some free audio and video tools which are useful and seem to work well. However, the applications try to install some other things you may not want. They are not viruses but most of us are better off without them.

Specifically, what I have seen from Koyote is Dealio Toolbar and the Spigot browser. Dealio is adware and a browser hijack which keeps changing your homepage to one that tries to sell you stuff. Spigot browser I'm not familiar with, but I suspect it's one that constantly flings ads and is not especially secure.

Toolbars are generally annoying and not that useful; avoid installing them at all costs. Koyote allows you to opt out of installing their adware, but you need to check the Advanced option in their setup screen. Uncheck everything that looks like a toolbar or browser add-on and you'll be OK.
