• !!!BROWSER HIJACKER!!! contains Trovi Search

  SumacamoJune 19, 2014

  Pros

  Does what it says it will do, but beware of malware in the software!!!

  Cons

  I carefully selected DECLINE on all the "special offers" and my browsers were still hijacked by TROVI SEARCH. Now I'm spending my time trying to remove this junkware from my work computer!

• BEWARE! Installer contains CRAPWARE

  oscarucbFebruary 15, 2014

  Pros

  The utility itself is nice and seems to work as advertised

  Cons

  The installer attempts to install SEVERAL forms of unnecessary and irrelevant CRAPWARE and SPYWARE, including "Conduit Search Protect" (which is so malicious that many antivirus programs clobber it) and other such shady crapware not listed in the project description. If you are very careful you can decline installing this unnecessary garbage during installation, but the casual user not reading the fine print will infect his system with all this unwanted malware.

  Summary

  Installer should not include this irrelevant crap at all. It makes me question the legitimacy and trustworthiness of this shell extension.

• So simple, and works perfectly.

  ktgilxFebruary 22, 2013

  Pros

  Easy to use, takes no space or time, and does exactly what it says.

  Cons

  None so far.

  Summary

  For months I've been looking for a solution to an annoying bug that resets my desktop settings every time I restart Windows 7. Despite this having been developed a number of years ago, it still does the trick. I do still have to reset my multi-monitor configuration when Windows restarts, but at least this saves my icon placements so I can restore them afterwards. Thanks!
