  "A piece of wrecking macinary"

  March 20, 2011  |   By teemarsh

  Version: Jetico Personal Firewall 2.1.0.10

  Pros

  Nothing at all

  Cons

  The trial period was 1 day. It caused blue screen of death. Uninstall did not work. System still unusable after 1 days continuous efforts.

  Summary

  The day after I installed it I got the message that the trial period was up. It then purported to proceed in some cut down mode and outlawed connexions came with the speed of light. Eventually everything froze. It has taken over 24 hours to get the system back into semi-working order. Now most things I try to do cause windows explorer to crash, and let's face it, Windows is of little use without it!
  Uninstalling it, which ws my first strategy, resulted in messages at start up (which had to be in safe mode, because I got the blue screen otherwise) inicating that it was not uninstalled, and a visit to programmes and the registry confirmed this. Having got rid of all traces the blue screen was still with me. I eventually got back to booting normally with a system restore (well, two actually), but still left with an unusable system. (Windows explorer crashing and the circle which has replaced the egg timer, going endlessly with just about everything I do).
  Bottom line - keep well clear of this destructive garbage.
