    "NOTHING but Trouble!!!!!!"

    February 1, 2012  |   By f01m01k50

    Pros

    Pretty interface.

    Cons

    This program will made my computer experience a nightmare, just like others reviewers have said. Crashes, slow web page loading, inability to update other programs, etc.

    None of this was present on my computer when I updated my subscription and downloaded BD 2012.

    All that ended when I got a refund and uninstalled it.

    Night and day.

    Summary

    This was a good company with a good product. I used their products for several years and thought nothing about continuing my subscription when the old one expired.

    All that changed 7-8 weeks ago.

    The problems began immediately, and I struggled with this program for the entire time. My computer performance and speed was cut by 2/3. TWO THIRDS!!! at least. It was like I was using dial up on a 686.

    Crashes, unable to update, etc., etc. On, and on.

    At one point, I was advised that i was still in que with the BD Tech support. IN QUE--FOR 6 WEEKS!!!. I was finally bumped up.

    They cannot fix it...and for me, the problems never stopped, until I uninstalled it.
