"Rubish"
Version: Active Web Reader 2.48
Summary
This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.
Pretty much junk.
Fake "free" software with 10 preconfigured feeds that can't be removed. (sponsorship deal).
Don't call it a freeware it's an ads supported software. Not ran Adaware yet to see how many spyware it installed on the side. -
"Have all you need"

"Reinvention of wheel"
Version: Active Web Reader 2.42
Pros
Fast download, easy to install.
Cons
Kept crashing, had to uninstall. Did not find it useful at all. Was easier to visit my favorite news sites and click the story I want to view. Isn't that what Favorites or Bookmarks are designed to do? This whole concept of RSS is an extra step.

Pros
Not very exactly but it helped me much. I saved a lot of time when looking for the document on internet.

"simple, easy to use, hasn't crashed yet, no account required."
Version: Active Web Reader 2.42
Pros
This is the first RSS reader that hasn't crashed (tried Tristana (kernel32.dll error) and Sharpreader (internal error)). Pluck requires creating an account. Attensa, which integrates into outlook, still required loading IE to read the actual story. The auto-find module looks for RSS feeds while browsing web sites. This may be a good feature for some and an annoyance for others but installation is optional.
Cons
Can't delete default folders (but can deleted included feeds except in the software folder) but most are catagories we all use anyway. This is a minor flaw for a free program that doesn't require creating an account and having a web site track which feeds you're reading. I would hardly call it an intrusion or abuse of privacy as other have. The email feature is built into the program (doesn't use your default email reader) so there is no easy access to your address book. Hopefully this will be corrected in the future.
