"Good for the price"
Version: The Extractor 1.4.3.2
Pros
Fast, free and easy to use.

As most free programs these days it wants to change your browser settings and install tool bar ......
With all new programs especially free ones I always choose the custom install option and suggest you do too.Summary
Very useful free program.

"works as advertised, no hassles"
Version: The Extractor 1.4.3.2
Pros
simple, efficient
Cons
not a lot of options, but it is stable, so that often is a result of this.
-
"Installs unrequested software"
Version: The Extractor 1.4.3.2
Pros
Extracts RAR files
Cons
Installed an additional program onto my computer, Babylon, which is quite intrusive. Took over my browser and installed a pervasive pop-up. Removed it with Revo, but poor form to sneak it in, especially when recommended on CNET. Now checking it did not sneak anything more invasive in too.
Summary
Does the job, but at a high price.

Cons
None I have come across

"POSSIBLE MALWARE!"
Version: The Extractor 1.4.3.2
Pros
Works as advertised. However -
Cons
- after updating through with the program's own update link, I picked up the "Shop to Win" adware/malware. I removed it via Malwarebytes but the Extractor program itself was corrupted - either by the removal process or by StW itself.
Summary
After hours of effort to straighten put my 'puter, I am understandably reluctant to reinstall this program.
