"Works like a charm !"
Version: TZ Connection Booster 4.0
Pros
Explains each setting and gives recommended ones too.
Easy to use.Cons
Can only be run under compatibility mode but whats the bad thing in it :D ?
-
"I should have read the reviews first, sigh!"
Version: TZ Connection Booster 4.0
Pros
None that I know of.
Cons
Installed the program, and nowhere did it mention it was going to add
the "White Smoke" toolbar. Then at the end of the install it asks if I want to execute the program, and of course I say "yes"....what
happens next? Nothing...at first. I expected a program window to
appear...it doesn't. But what does happen? This program is running,
and chewing my available ram up, so I had only 7% available RAM...it brought Win7 to its knees!!! I used Advanced System Care
uninstall, and removed this #?!#? program, and the toolbar it installed. I agree with another review I read...CNET is not doing a good job of preventing malware to be available for download. This is the second download from CNET today that I had a problem like this with, and I only downloaded 2 programs. So, thats what I call an EPIC FAIL!! -
"Doesn't work with 7-comes with Hijack browser-:("
Version: TZ Connection Booster 4.0
Pros
Looks like it has good reviews....
Cons
...Doesn't work with win 7.
Summary
Looks like it would've helped with my connection. Unfortunately didn't work with 7, AND came with CLARO crap Adware a browser Hijacker that replaced all my home screens with it's ad based-garbage. CNET used to be good about not allowing that. Last time I download anything from Cnet. throughly disappointed. Do NOT DOWNLOAD.

"Works Great..."
Version: TZ Connection Booster 4.0
Pros
This program used correctly works like it says that it does. Very through explanation of what is recommended and what is not and usually makes sure that the recommended option is selected by default before you even click to the next screen.
Cons
People using Windows Vista and or 7 just need to run this in compatibly mode for Windows XP SP2 or 3 and should fix whatever loading issues there is for the program because I did have that problem myself until I changed some things on the various systems that I have used this on.
Summary
Overall despite it's not working from the just downloaded state to the computer untouched it did what it said that it would do and I am overall pleased with those settings and it didn't mess up my computer at all and was easy to install.
