"Tried others but this is by far much better"
Pros: This product is much quicker at startup and doesn't use a lot of space on your hard drive. It's also very easy on updates.
Cons: I can't think of anything negative to say about it right now
Summary: By far, the most versatile software and easy to use. Try this and you will quit shopping for others read more

"Nothing free about having to pay to join something."
Pros: Nothing, did not complete the download.
Cons: Could not get past the "join" screen. When something says free that is exactly what I expect it to be.
Summary: See "con" above. read more
