"Useful for finding drivers..."
Version: 3DP Chip 13.04
Pros
This is a useful program for finding drivers...
Cons
I have used this program plenty enough times to know that there isn't anything wrong with it.
Summary
I wouldn't read too much into the negative comments on here. I think most likely they just aren't using it properly....

"STAY AWAY FROM THIS TROJAN"
Version: 3DP Chip 12.08
Pros
None unless you like your privacy violated and your OS corrupted
Cons
It's a trojan of some kind.
It borks up system files beyond repair and you'll have to perform a clean install.
Task manager is corrupted.
Notifications bar is corrupted.
Windows Restore and Repair are corrupted.Summary
The person behind this belongs in jail and if our public servants were spying on the corporations(which have absolutely no human rights what so ever) instead of us,this crap wouldn't be happening.
Get it together CNET.
You're endorsing hackerware. -
"Not reliable"
Version: 3DP Chip 12.06
Pros
Maybe ok program in combination with a formatted pc with new installed windows OS.
Cons
I have not downloaded any drivers because i already have the same drivers (same date) on my system.
In other words, this program wants me to download the same drivers.Summary
I downloaded audio ati hd driver from realtek website and videocard driver from AMD website.
The rest of the drivers are installed by slimdrivers and driverpack solution.
If you already used driverpack solution and installed drivers through slimdrivers, but still want a second/third opinion, then get drivereasy for example. -

Version: 3DP Chip 11.07
Pros
I fix computers for living, sometimes it help us find driver more quickly. Ease of use,
Cons
Can't find all the driver, for beginner can't went to wrong download of driver in 3dp website.
Summary
I use these tool many many time, it can find a lot of driver. Especially helpful to find driver non dell or hp brand computer. For beginner who complain useless, sometime they can't find the driver that necessary for you. You still have to go back manufacture website to find driver. But finding graphic card, sound card, and chipset is pretty accurate.
