"Doesn't Work Well, Lots of Adware"
Version: JustZIPit 135
Pros
Well, it was easy to install!
Cons
Loaded a redirect program ("InfoAtom") into my browser, as well as forced some online backup program... Even though I specifically selected the "Custom" Install and told it not to add toolbars, etc.
Further, the context menu (right-click) options only work for certain types of files... You can Zip PDFs, for example, but not XML files. You can't select many different files and right-click them all into one ZIP file at once.
So, as an actual archiving system, pretty useless. -

"Will add a bunch of adware to your computer"
Version: JustZIPit 135
Pros
It works as it says it does.
Cons
This added a bunch of adware to my computer, changed my home page, and installed some browser thing that I had to uninstall. I've now wasted a ton of time on correcting all the problems this thing caused.
Summary
DON'T DOWNLOAD THIS.

"IT JUST DOES NOT WORK!"
Version: JustZIPit 135
Pros
It isn't a virus, a worm or a trojan.
Cons
It does nothing except open a webpage advertising their other product which is not free. After removal, it has left two annoying items in my context menus that will take a fair bit of registry editing to remove. Yes folks, I do know how to "right click", or I wouldn't understand the term "context menu".
My OS is XP SP3, if anyone thinks they know what I am doing that is so wrong.Summary
Avoid this like the plague. As someone mentioned above, all of its functionality is ALREADY NATIVE TO WINDOWS. Whether it works or not, you just don't need it.

"Very handy, fast and functional."
Version: JustZIPit 135
Pros
Quick, from right-click drop down menu.
Cons
Doesn't work on Windows 7 but Windows 7 has its own built in under the "send to" tag on the right-click menu.
Summary
I recently put this on a friends XP machine and she had no idea it would work that easy and WELL. New convert.

"Excellent software!"

"Not completely automatic but functional."
Version: JustZIPit 135
Pros
Unzips files very fast.
Cons
Need to go through a couple windows.
-
"totally useless"
Version: JustZIPit 135
Pros
simple to setup and run.
Cons
a total nightmare when it comes to uninstalling the program, leaves behind self-replicating registry keys, context menus and other pieces linked to the program. There is no active support and a majority of the links are dead.
Summary
I would highly recommend users to use another freeware program other than Justzipit. or save your money up to purchase the ultimate program Winzip.
