"Not Bad, but Watch Out for 3rd-Party BS"
Pros
Got the job done. I had an especially sneaky program that Revo was able to uninstall it completely. It's very thorough. Typically I use TuneUp Utilities 2013.
Cons
Besides the usual 3rd-Party BS that a lot of freeware tries to opt you in to, there was something called "Iminent" (I spelled that correctly, btw ... www.iminent.com) that was installed on ALL my browsers, on my C:/ drive, EVERYTHING.
Usually I'm pretty good about catching their tricky opt-ins (e.g., Revo highlights the green install button that installs Coupon and other third-party BS, but you can click the grayed-out "Decline" button, avoid the BS opt-in, and still install Revo), but either I missed the Iminent install or it's installed whether you like it or not. In any event, if Iminent installs, you will have to manually delete it in all your browser extensions, in addition to uninstalling the Iminent program proper.
Harmless enough, but annoying.

Thank you for your comment on our product. It is the CNET installer that is installing that third party unwanted software on your system after your "agreement" during the install.
We've never bundled any software or toolbar to be offered or installed with Revo Uninstaller. But you have such offer during the install procedure, because you had downloaded the CNET installer of Revo Uninstaller. If you do not want such unwanted programs in the future our advice is to download programs from the web site of their vendor/publisher, or specifically about CNET to register as user and to use the link "Direct Download Link" under the green download button - it downloads a clean setup
If in the future you are again interested in our program please download the program directly from our web site. It is a clean setup, so you will not be prompted to install any additional software.
