Having read the excellent review on Snapfiles I downloaded and trialled this software. It works great and is a fresh and original take on personal finance software. In fact I was about to buy it, until I read about the registration procedures on their website. The registration code they give you expires after a period of time. So if like me you regularly change your IT kit, you have to hope they are still trading when yo want to reinstall, re-download the software and ask them for a new key. I understand they want to stop piracy, but I use a lot of shareware and this is way over the top! What a shame

Does exactly what it claims to do very well and always finds the target when pasting; unlike certain other non-free clipboard programs!

Lovely interface, and generally excellent, but in the end it didn't do it for me as it doesn't preview QuickTime movie files from digital cameras. The equally free XnView does, so I use that instead.

I really like this software - its free, has a lovely interface, and nice balloon notifications of new mail. Unlike Coffee Cup Spam Blocker it does not keep copies of all your previews in Documents and Settings/Application Data, but genuinely deletes your messages on line. I've tried several anti-spam freeware programs and like this the best.
