"Malware In The Setup"
Version: Active@ ISO Burner 2.5
Pros
ISO burner actually works
Cons
Malware is in the setup, so if you do not pay attention you could have a toolbar install as well as your settings change. There is no reason for those software to be selected by default. On top of that it installs games without your permission.
Summary
I do not know why companies have useless software in their set up, the ISO burner works. However, since there is malware in the set up I would say stay away from it and find a better software.

"Pass on this. It adds malware/spyware."
Version: Active@ ISO Burner 2.5

"Malware and advertisements"
Version: Active@ ISO Burner 2.5
Pros
None. Total crap.
Cons
Installs advertisements, modifies your browser, incredibly sketchy
Summary
Installs a bunch of browser modifying adware. God knows what else. Normally I'm very careful about clicking "do not install" extras, but it still persisted and had to reinstall Chrome just to get rid of all the crap. Updating my antivirus and doing a full system scan.

"Didnt work on burning ISO"
Version: Active@ ISO Burner 2.5
Pros
doesnt work
Cons
Used to burn Ubuntu 12.10 ISO which is 763 on blank DVD and just corrupted a perfect DVD. I used Power ISO before but didnt want to again because that has bloat ware on its install but the AVG Toolbar can be unchecked before final install. I didnt know why this software didnt work.... so I used Power ISO and it worked with flying colors.
Summary
Do yourself a favor and just ignore this software. There are plenty of other software suites out there like; Nero 12 Platinum, DAEMON Tools Pro and Power ISO. There are probably more or even better ones but that list is what I used so far with minimal complaint.

Pros

- Easy to Use.Cons
None - Nil
Summary
This program is another tool in my consultant/developer toolkit.
I have used this program since the mid 2000s and it is very reliable.
I wish this program was available on MacOS X, as it is my must-have on Microsoft Windows.
I really like the ease of use. Open it, find the ISO, place a blank DVD in the drive, and go for it! -
