• it doesnt work!

  July 1, 2015

  Pros

  old versions USED to be great... but now it just doesnt work (since mid 2014).

  Cons

  Seriously, this does not work in Chrome or Firefox or the standalone version. i assume the developers have abandoned shop.

  Summary

• complete malware! DO NOT INSTALL! Negative stars.

  pikeman666100May 6, 2015

  Pros

  Great concept.

  Cons

  This program will install hijacks on any browser and trash your computer. The early version was great. Then they went over to the dark side.

  Summary

  CNET should take down this crapware! DO NOT DOWNLOAD THIS!

• Works great, bad malware

  March 24, 2015

  Pros

  This recorder works REALLY REALLY well. It has a lot of different options from audio, to video, to Youtube. Your files are nicely put into an easily findable menu system. I used it to record online radio, get clips from a youtube video, capture stuff from my screen.

  Cons

  Unfortunately the OTHER things that are attached to this free software are a big headache. My computer crashed and I lost Freecorder and I'm not sure if I will put it back on because of horrible little extra stuff that attaches itself to your system. I'd rate it much higher if it wasn't for that.

  Summary

  It's the best recorder I've seen. I could deal with the malware - I cleaned up most of it - but I will try something else before downloading Freecorder again.

• Only if you like spam. It's loaded with it.

  gatochwegApril 27, 2014

  Pros

  There are none.

  Cons

  Never before came so much spam from just one install. It installs for every user and every browser. You can get rid of it but it is a LOT of work.

  Summary

  Garbage. Stay away. This thing is not 'free'. It's amazing this site even posts this program..

• Rubiish spyware - avoid at all costs

  KcjK1February 12, 2014

  Pros

  Absolutely None

  Cons

  The previous versions were great but avoid the latest version at all costs - it installs several pieces of Malware that are a real pain to remove

• Don t install!!!!

  oudoupoudouJanuary 12, 2014

  Pros

  Don t trick you that recorder is working

  Cons

  The easy way to uninstall this trojan is except uninstall all freecorder programs also to unintall your browsers and and then reinstall as standalone (so don t forget to download the browsers first as standalone before unintall)

• Danger, Will Robinson!

  Magus75November 9, 2013

  Pros

  The actual FreeCorder part seems to work.

  Cons

  Malware galore - Did I say it contains Malware?

  Summary

  Don't install unless you want to spend the next several hours scratching your head wondering why all your browsers have been hijacked and you get all sorts of unwanted popups when clicking links in your browsers. This used to be a decent and trusted app. Sorry to see Applian go this route.

• Install only if you like malware/spyware, and toolbars.

  meyer_andrewOctober 29, 2013

  Pros

  Never got to find out.

  Cons

  Same as above.

  Summary

  As others above have said I opted out of all offers presented during installation yet was recipient of a new toolbar and several adware/spyware programs. Appreciate that.
