CNET editors' review
Reviewed by: CNET Staff on February 20, 2006
This CD and DVD burner works as advertised, but the bundled toolbar it installs reduces its appeal. Burn4Free CD & DVD lets you burn audio discs or write data to CDs and DVDs by dropping audio or data files into the main window.
The button-heavy main window has a somewhat awkward look, but it's easy enough to understand. If you find yourself overwhelmed by the multitude of controls, you can switch to the more streamlined Easy mode. Be aware that the app attempts to install the NavExcel toolbar, which changes the way IE behaves when you mistype a URL or enter one of NavExcel's recognized keywords into the address bar.
Budget-minded users may not care, but even they have plenty of other cheap and free options. We'd prefer to burn discs with our jukebox of choice or pay for a more full-featured, less invasive application.

Version: Burn4Free CD and DVD 4.8
Pros: None. None. None.
Cons: Despite choosing "NO" for the toolbar, the toolbar installed anyway. When tried to run it, AVG and Avast went nuts saying it was spyware.
Summary: I definitely do not like a program that installs something I chose not to have installed. Then when the program runs, two AV programs flagged it as spyware and malware. Need I say more?
