qleft  Excellent anti-virus program - the best  qright

avast! Home Edition version 4.1.396

I absolutely love this program. I tried it prior to the update, on WinXP, and it was incompatible, and frankly, a hassle to uninstall. So I was hesitant to download this new version. But I'm glad I installed this program, it is infinitely better than NAV. I have had no virus problems since I started using Avast! Another great feature is the ability to download different skins. If you don't like the appearance, you can change it instantly. I can't say enough about this program, but I highly recommend it, it's functional, has an attractive GUI, and it's free!

I haven't tried all of the screenshot programs out there, so it wouldn't be fair of me to say this is the best. But I have tried a few, and This is the best of the programs I have tried. I like the fact that you can preview the screenshot before you save it. I also like the feature of adding a drop shadow to the screenshot, I haven't used it, and I don't think I ever will, but It's a great feature to have. Another thing I appreciate is that this isn't a 'lite' version, promoting a commercial version. There are many more features, you can automatically direct the screenshot to email, file, windows clipboard, or printer. Very good features, especially for a 100% free program. I highly recommend this program.

Avira AntiVir Personal
  • Freeware
  • Win2000/XP/Vista

qleft  Good anti-virus program  qright

Avira AntiVir Personal version 6.25.00.03
  • Interface: 2
  • Features: 3
  • Ease of use: 4
  • Value: 5
  • Overall: 4

This program works very well, it caught every virus. This is a great program, for the price; free. I used this program for a few weeks, but I eventually moved on to another program. I moved onto another program because the GUI of this program isn't very good, and I'm one of those people that wants his programs to look good, as well as work good. If you aren't critical about a great appearance, then this is the program for you.

I've been using this program for a couple of weeks, and I have to say it's all in all a pretty good program. It has many, many features. This is kind of a lite version, there are some restrictions. That is the only drawback of this program. One of the restrictions is the limitation of only 8 concurrent downloads, but I don't know that I'd ever need to download more files than that, at one time. I recommend this program. It's pretty decent.

ZipGenius
  • Freeware
  • WinWin (All)

qleft  The best zip program out there! bar none  qright

ZipGenius version 5.5.1.420
  • Interface: 5
  • Features: 5
  • Ease of use: 4
  • Value: 5
  • Overall: 5

This is honestly the best zip program there is, commercial or freeware. I don't know why this is free, I would definitely pay for it. This program is infinitely better than other commercial programs, I won't mention names. The GUI is great, it goes along perfectly with WinXP - I highly recommend this program, to anyone, even if they're fully satisfied with another file compression program, I urge you to try this one out. It's great!
