by ralph2002 August 19, 2008 2:07 PM PDT: I have tried to download FormatFactory several times, and all I get is around 597kb, and then the message "Download Complete"! I only have dial-up with a very slow connection out here in the woods.
Is there a way I can download this program?

This is the best file format batch converter I have worked with yet.Its support of files (except SWF). and speed + custom settings are excellent.10 out of 10.

by collingfamily1 June 2, 2009 8:13 AM PDT: I have used format factory for years, and just loved it. Today I went to download the most recent version and when trying to install it, it tells me it is now bundled with software that will track and report internet usage. I decline the install, and to my surprise McAfee comes alive with RKVERIFY.EXE message. This is software from Relevant Knowledge. I will not be using FF anymore, and you have to question software manufacturers who even when you decline their install (due to spyware), they have already launced it.
