How does it act
Freeware bundles are possibly the most likely way you got the threat. It’s doubtful that users would install them willingly, so freeware bundles is the most probable method. If users started paying closer attention to how they install programs, this method would not be so effective. Those offers will be hidden during installation, and if you do not pay attention, you’ll miss them, which means their installation will be allowed.

Instead, opt for Advanced (Custom) settings as they will not only allow you to see what has been added but also provide an opportunity to uncheck everything.
