"Comes with Incredibar Toolbar"
Version: IZArc 4.1.7
Pros
I like the Izarc program. I have used it for many years. I had recently restored my PC and had to reinstall this program.
Cons
I unchecked the boxes and it should not of added the extra stuff but, it did. I had ran Revouninstaller to remove it and ran spybot. They both showed they removed it but, the IncreDibar toolbar was still in my Firefox. I uninstalled it from Tools>Addons and it removed the toolbar. I somehow feel like it's still there.
Summary
Izarc is a good program. The Incredibar Toolbar stuff that came with it is not. Maybe try to download it from somewhere else like the original company. That Incedibar Toolbar is trouble.

"Malware Ridden"
Version: IZArc 4.1.7
Pros
Used to be a decent program; all 5 star reviews come from before the recent versions.
Cons
Now bundled with the known browser hijacking software Incredibar. Even deselecting the option continues to install the program. I am sickened that the once nice author of this program is now bundling malware with it. What a worthless excuse for a program.
Summary
Malware ridden nightmare.]
He's right, you're wrong. This installs malware, period.

"Do not install as long as bundlled with Incredibar!"
Version: IZArc 4.1.7
Pros
Very good peace of software I have enjoyed for many years! Nothing short of perfect!
Cons
Installed Icredibar junk on my computer (win8) that really has made a mess of things. And mind you - I chose NOT to install it.
Summary
DO NOT install until developer has fixed this issue!

"dont install!"
Version: IZArc 4.1.7
Pros
there are none
Cons
installed, carefully chose not to install the multiple toolbars, reset homepage, and search engine etc. It still installed one anyway, plus splashtop malware. uninstalled and windows explorer can no longer open files, had to do system restore to get rid of this cr*p.
(its unzip speed is also slow compared to 7zip or winrar) -

"Sabotaged?"
Version: IZArc 4.1.7
Pros
did everything i ever asked of it (five star).... but....
Cons
Get an old version (probably before this 2go thing). this new one (no stars) cant create zip files ("unsupported file type") and doesnt install into the OS properly, filetypes, context menu, into "program files" its a disaster. maybe its allergic to XP, someone bought it, who knows what the excuse is.

"Will only install if you accept its adware"
Version: IZArc 4.1.7
Pros
None. I never got to the point of letting it load IZArc onto my system. I stopped when it loaded some adware after I deselected the adware twice.
Cons
It really irks me to no end when a program will load something onto your system even AFTER you told it not to.
Summary
You couldn't pay me enough to take this piece of adware crap. Well, you probably could pay me enough to install it. Then I'd just rip it out.
