    The review on this needs to be rewritten. In the bad section, it says you cannot label the CD, but YES you can. Look when you are about to burn.

    Also this program is way beter then nero

    I love this program. Its simple and easy to use. Playing a DVD is brilliant on this. No more HUGE programs like WinDVD or PowerDVD that force you to watch the entire thing. With this, you can skip to the parts you like (just like a normal movie you play in WMP). This program is one of the best out. DOWNLOAD IT NOW!!!

    I am looking forward to this update, but this beta 1 of this isnt very good. There is no stop button! and u cannot move the toolbars around...and that is just a few problems. BUT, i think it will be a great browser, it just needs heaps of bugs to be fixed. When this is released, bye bye firefox!

    I love this program. Not only is it fast, but easy to use. Why would anyone want to use bloated cr.ap like MSN and Yahoo, where Gtalk is basic and uses hardly any memory. It runs fast and the sound quality is great. MSN freezes too much, as with Yahoo! Gtalk has never froze! Only problem is, there is no file sharing?

    When i first got a computer, it was pre-installed with WinZip. I had no idea what it was used for lol. Eventually I fell in love with the program...but then I found WinRAR. It was ok, but looked kinda ugly. Then they released the skinning feature and WinZip was uninstalled. This program ROCKS!

    A nice little package, but you have to install all the updates singley. This can take a couple of hours if you have a slow computer. Using Windows Update would be a lot easier and probably faster because it installs the updates for you.

    This program is awesome and a life saver. I downloded WebShot images (over 2gbs worth) off a filesharing program, then I realised that it was in a webshot photo extenstion, which meant I couldnt view them!!! This was the ONLY program that let me view them and even convert them to JPEG. This program is wonderful and I completely support it.

    This is not a public beta, which means that using this program may danger your computer. This is meant to be a testing version and not for personal use. There is many problems with this program. It is not set up to browser standards. Using this can put your system at risk from hackers, viruses and more. I wouldnt recommend using this version until it is fully released in December 2005.

    I like this program, however the errors this program has is annoying. You apply one patch and it says ERROR and asks if you wish to quit or ignore it. They should make sure they fix all the bugs before they release this. But other then that, a good program, but BEWARE fooling around with your firefox...

    dont listen to the comment below. the only reason the pages are loading slow is because you are using a BETA version. TESTING version, so of course it will have bugs. I LOVE THIS PIECE OF SOFTWARE. I have told everyone to use it. The internet wouldnt be the same without it...even my dad know uses it because its faster then internet explorer.

    I LOVE THIS TOOLBAR! only problem is, it makes my firefox freeze a lot. this may only be in the last few versions, but up to v0.3b, it has frozen when opening tabs and looking at websites. This would be a great piece of software if it wasnt for that...so sadly, i dont use it. FIX THE BUGS YAHOO!!!

    I like this program. I first came across this program a
    while ago and have alway followed it as it is a great piece of software. I was using a '3rd party' codec pack and it would make my videos go much slower. about 20 seconds to start up. After installing this codec pack, it was instant. A MUST DOWNLOAD!!! THE HUGE SIZE IS SOO WORTH IT. My computer is not complete without this piece of software!!!!

    I liked this program because it played A LOT of movie files you get off the net, BUT it makes the speed of the video go slower. If i open a movie file, normally it takes about 1 second. After I installed this, it took up to 10 seconds!!! and as soon as i uninstalled this, it was fast again.

    I heard about this in a forum so i thought i would give it a go. But sadly, it is VERY HARD to use if you dont know much about computers. One wrong move and your computer is in trouble. My advice is, dont bother downloading this. Its too scary!

    i thought this piece of software was very good. Until i done a scan for junk files. It went into my system files and deleted important files, which resulted in windows getting many memory errors. I was forced to wipe my computer and start again because of this program. I suggest you stay away as you may have the same problem. Some features on it also dont work. There is an 'reinstall internet explorer' feature. That is useless as it doesnt do anything. Best part about this program is the ablity to back up your windows activation. But overall, DO NOT DOWNLOAD THIS unless u want many computer problems!!!

    DO NOT INSTALL THIS PROGRAM. Not only does it WRECK your msn messenger, but also runs even if u have unnistalled it. When you install it, u get a PAY FOR THIS NOW warning every 30 minutes...and when u install it, u still get the same warning, but it deletes all the emoticons u had before and the backgrounds and all. This has made me VERY UPSET with this program.
