Google Chrome

qleft  It's ok  qright

Google Chrome version 3.0.196.2 beta
  • Interface: 2
  • Features: 1
  • Ease of use: 4
  • Value: 3
  • Overall: 2

You cannot install it anywhere but on your "C-Drive" where Chrome chooses. This is a huge issue on small drives and is just an attempt by Google to get around system admins who block what workers can put on their computer. This way more people can use Google's Chrome. Don't waste your time, till Google fixes this and gives YOU the ability to install it anywhere you want

EASEUS Partition Master

EASEUS Partition Master version 4.0.1
  • Interface: 5
  • Features: 5
  • Ease of use: 5
  • Value: 5

This is one of the best pieces of freeware you can get. I have used it to expand, to shrink, to rename, to convert logical drives to primary drives, never with a hitch. But like any partition manager remember BACK UP FILES FIRST

Revo Uninstaller
  • Freeware
  • Win2000/XP/2003/Vista

qleft  Great program  qright

Revo Uninstaller version 1.83

  • Ease of use: 5
  • Value: 5
  • Overall: 5

This rocks, I can't recommend it enough. The only thing is if you don't want it to make a restore point each time, (let's say you're uninstalling more than one program, one after the other) make sure you uncheck that option. Nothing bad about this, get it

uTorrent
  • Freeware
  • Win2000/XP/Vista

qleft  Great for downloading horrible on uploading  qright

uTorrent version 1.8.2
  • Interface: 4
  • Features: 1
  • Ease of use: 5
  • Value: 5
  • Overall: 3

I found a huge bug in uTorrent. You can create a torrent using uTorrent and it does't always seed correctly. Once you upload a certain amount, if you hit stop - force -> recheck, uTorrent no longer recognizes your hash on the file YOU create. This leaves everyone of the people trying to download the file from you with an incomplete file, and you can't fix it. The uTorrent people have told me it's the fault of Windows Media Player tagging mp3 or WMA or whatever files you use. This is a MAJOR flaw, that you now have corrupt files you're transfering all over the place. While it works well if you just download, make sure you constantly do a force -> recheck for any torrents you start. This explains a lot of why people have torrents that for no reason suddenly get stuck

VirtualDub
  • Freeware
  • WinWin (All)

qleft  Very good product  qright

VirtualDub version 1.8.8
  • Interface: 5
  • Features: 5
  • Ease of use: 5
  • Value: 5
  • Overall: 5

This product is excellent, I would highly recommend it. The only bad thing is there are virtually no instructions on how to use it. For instance, after you download and unzip it, it doesn't install like most programs. I had to click 3 exe files to find the right one. (VirtualDub.exe is the correct one). You will not find this installed on the computer, which can be good or bad depending on your needs. But you could put the program on a usb drive and take it with you The product rocks, it is great and does a wonderful job, but you're gonna have to sit down and play with it. Once you figure out how to use it and what each part does, it is great. Also does not include codecs (and it says so) but you can download those for free from Snapfiles. If the author would put even minimal directions in place it'd be so much better. Note: the author does explain what each tab does in the help file. So after you click VirtualDub.exe hit help menu and begin reading.

Clickster
  • Freeware
  • Win98/ME/2000/XP/Vista

qleft  Good for it's use  qright

Clickster version 1.63.4
  • Interface: 4
  • Features: 2
  • Ease of use: 5
  • Value: 4
  • Overall: 4

I like this, it is simple to use. I would recommend it. It does need a bit of tweaks. Like you may want to hit the button twice because you hit it once and it appears not to have done anything, but it has. It also doesn't seem to tell you when it's done searching. So if you're searching for say "Madonna" I waited 20 minutes and it seemed to be done. Then I came back at 40 mintues nothing. Then at 60 minutes, it found a whole bunch more songs. So it could use something saying it's still looking. But those are just cosmetic tweaks

Restoration
  • Freeware
  • Win98/ME/2000/XP/Vista

qleft  This little thing is great  qright

Restoration version 2.5.14
  • Interface: 5
  • Features: 5
  • Ease of use: 5
  • Value: 5
  • Overall: 5

I can't tell you how many times it saved my butt, it got files off of my hard drive, and my flash drive and even my camera. It's scary as I had a ten year old computer and I got files off the computer from 1998 intact. Shows how much isn't deleted. It is so small it runs on a floppy Great!! Try this first.
