What you can't do a custom install and watch what you're accepting? IMHO coretemp is the best, granted I'm not an idiot.

No need to call me an idiot.

I did a custom install (I even turned off the desktop shortcut), but it still installed all that stuff.

When did I call you an idiot? I said "I'm not an idiot".

I felt like you implied that, apologies if I misinterpreted your post.

That's very much possible. I have never had any problems with it 

(I only monitor with it and don't change fan speeds and stuff.)
