  "Their so called trial distribution doesn't include a functional program"

  Cons

  (Apologies to readers: I can't figure out how to avoid download.com parsers to put the text in paragaphs. The parser removes all my hard return paragraph breaks no matter how I do them resulting in an almost unintellgilble endlesss mash of words)

  Problems from smallest to largest.

  1. The program doesn't work with black background color schemes. It uses the windows color scheme text color but not the windows color scheme background color. It sets a white background. Therefore it you use light text on a black background for your windows color scheme, you get light text on white background in this program.

  2. The program doesn't work with Windows font magnification. You can't see the second image and you can't expand the dialog box enough to make it visible.

  3. The trial distribution is completely misleading. It says it is a 30 day trial distribution of the program. However, the trial program is in my opinion not functional because you can't do anything with it. You can't delete or move any files. You can't do anything with files. That makes it non functional in my book. If it's nonfunctional why put in a time limit. It's a mere sample, not a trial program.

  As a result, I really don't know if it works or not.

  I was considering buying it until I figured out what they had done. After seeing that, I changed my mind.

  This kind of sample, as opposed to a temporary functional program, should be discouraged.

  I would recommend that potential users help sent a message to developers that this kind of phoney functionality will not get money out of people's pocket.
