What everybody else said.

It was not the fact that the free version had ads. It was the potential malware, the fake system alerts, and the pervasive notifications in general (even though they COULD be turned off, it was made difficult to do so) that turned me away from ES in the long run. Even if the paid version eliminated some of those issues, I don't reward bad behavior. The bottom line for me is that I no longer trust the development team or their product.
