CNET Editors' review
Whether documenting a computer problem or a favorite Web site, many computer users will someday need to capture exactly what's on their computer screen. This program isn't the most powerful screenshot tool, but it offers almost everything an average user will need in a easy-to-use interface. The software allows users to save an image of the full screen, an active window, or any rectangular area as a graphics file. However, it can't take pictures of menus or documents that require scrolling. It offers editing features including cropping, highlighting, blurring, and resizing, but lacks annotation components such as text balloons or arrows. The interface makes it easy to manage several screenshots at once. All told, we feel comfortable recommending Screenshot Captor as one of the best freeware tools in its category.Publisher's Description

"Pretty good, feature-rich, and free!"
Version: Screenshot Captor 2.11.04
Pros
It's feature rich, reasonably easy to use, and free. I was looking for something like FastStone Capture (feature-rich and easy to use) but something free, and this is the closest I got.
Cons
Not as easy to use as FastStone Capture; some things take slight jumping through hoops. But nothing terrible, and you can't beat the price!

"This is NOT FreeWare!"
Version: Screenshot Captor 2.11.04
Pros
Seems like a nice program, but I couldn't really evaluate it without addressing the publisher's nag-screen policy.
Cons
This product is advertised as "FreeWare," however upon installation, it was necessary to go to the publisher's web site to download a product key. This is done so that the user can be subjected to requests for donations.
Once there, it becomes necessary to register and sign up to get the product key. Without the key, the program will subject you to nag screens asking you to "donate." With the product key, it is still necessary to repeat the process at 6 month intervals.
Note to Publisher: If you want to sell sharware, do so! Don't advertise the product as "free" if you are going to demand something in return. In this case, the user is asked to give up his privacy and furnish contact info.
