    "Something's Fishy"

    June 6, 2010  |   By OCX-Daemon

    Version: CoolPreviews for Internet Explorer 1.0

    Pros

    Amazing and truly wonderful in Firefox; one of my favorite FF add-ons

    Cons

    Sadly, doesn't work for Internet Explorer

    Summary

    I don't know if it actually works. It changed my scripting settings to something I wasn't comfortable with. It wouldn't run without the modified settings, even though I do have other extensions that (sensibly) don't require you to change security settings to allow them to run. In the end, I just uninstalled it. I've had bad experiences with Cooliris and my graphics card, and I just don't feel like going through another fiasco from a related product. Plus, I would rather not pull an obvious stupid.

    Annoyingly enough, it tried to pass itself off as Cooliris in the downloader. Perhaps I should have taken a hint there.

    "Be careful here"

    December 7, 2008  |   By smithkm71

    Version: CoolPreviews for Internet Explorer 1.0

    Pros

    I didn't run the program **see below**

    Cons

    Installation changes IE security setting to allow a script to run. This causes IE to (freak out) display a warning page and banner. It is up to you if you want to risk it, but I will not...

    Summary

    It sounds like it might be a useful tool, but it needs to run without changing the IE security settings.

    "Keylogger!"

    October 19, 2008  |   By airbot

    Version: CoolPreviews for Internet Explorer 1.0

    Pros

    No pros, didn't even work.

    Cons

    Downloaded, no EULA, then I opened up IE and got a blank about:SecurityAdvisor page. Gave me Mom Knows Best keylogger.

    Summary

    Don't waste your time, just spyware. Wake up CNET.

    Updated on Dec 7, 2008

    You cannot be serious. Internet Explorer is not a keylogger you moron. It's been around for ages and is one of the first browsers there was. You even say you use IE in your other post so don't contradict yourself. And what does zonealarm know.
