This comment concerns version V3.xxx of Counter Spy. I am a Counter Spy user since V2 - for almost 2 years - and let me tell you that this is the best antispyware product I have ever used. And version 3 is even a better bet, as it is even more simple to understand and configure and computer resources are even less used by the program. I can tell you that on a regular basis, V2 used +/- 50 mb of ram and V3 barely touchs the 25 mb mark. Impressive gain. In terms of protection, well...my computer is clean since day 1 of CounterSpy. And for the price, CounterSpy is the best bet we can make. Never had a problem with CounterSpy instalation and even during instalation of V3, the setup warned that some of CounterSpy functionalities would not be turned on, in order to not conflict with my Avira anti-virus, which is already protecting the read/write function of each file. Great piece of software

My 2007 review was for IFW version 1.70 C. I have upgraded to V2 and still is - at least for myself - the King of imaging software. Added functionalities - differential back'ups - and a lot more,- backups can now be scheduled besides a lot of new features - makes IFW even a better solution for those hazerdeous days when we have to revert our system due to any failure . I have tried DriveImage XML but never got a lock on the drive, even with Volume Shadow Copy enabled. And on top of this all, Terabyte support is as excellent as the software itself: just got answers in minutes, even on a week-end, and very helpfull as well. Topnotch softyware with topnotch support. Thank you very much.

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

qleft  Probably the best, being that is free  qright

Thunderbird version 2.0.0.9
  • Interface: 5
  • Features: 5
  • Ease of use: 5
  • Value: 5
  • Overall: 5

I have used them all - or almost - and I confess the first time I tried Thunderbird I did not like it. However after close inspection of features and after using it, allways comparing with others, I have to admit this is a great email client for one - like myself - that do have several mail accounts on different servers. I only use it on an IMAP configuration and it works like a charm as I can not only keep the messages I want on the servers instead of having them on my machine, delete the ones I do not need and even receive a message on a server and forward it from a different one, transfer messages from one server to another, on the fly, etc. I use the portable edition and have it installed on a USB pen, is fast enough and very reliable. The management of messages is top notch, as is the management of the address book, either in groups or by individuals. As a free program, it must be considered the best of them all.

O&O Defrag Professional
  • Free Trial ($49.95)
  • Win2000/XP/Vista

qleft  Getting better and better  qright

O&O Defrag Professional version 10
  • Interface: 5
  • Features: 5
  • Ease of use: 5
  • Value: 5
  • Overall: 5

I am a semi-pro photographer and I handle big TIFF and RAW files on a daily basis and all my drives - internal and external - must be always in top notch condition in order I am able to be fast in what I am doing as I move those files from drive to drive regularly.I came from OO defrag V8 and I am now with V10 and it gets better and better all the time. I ended up with the auto setting for all the drives - at beginning I always chose on demand defrag with different defrag methods - but the auto mode it's really a peace of mind, as it is reliable and effective. Never had a single problem with the software and I strongly recommend it to others. And I do not think it is expensive, as quality must always be paid. I've tried others prior to buy OO V8 two years ago - shareware and freeware - but OO it's a clear winner. Great defrag tool.
