  Version: WinPlosion 2.17

  "Activation fails and no support available"

  by mark366 on May 11, 2006

  Pros: Software is very cool, does what it advertises

  Cons: The software appeared to work nicely during the trial, but when I purchased it, the activation failed. When you purchase the product, they send you a serial number that appears to be tied to your hardware configuration. (Beware if you plan to use it on a different computer than the one you registered it on, or if you're planning to purchase a new computer soon and might want to transfer the software to your new computer -- my guess is that it won't work.) The activation isn't complete until the software calls the mother ship, which failed for me for no identifiable reason. Support is not available from the vendor until you upload information about your system to the author's web site, and that failed too. If my emails don't get a response, it looks like I'll be putting this purchase in contest. Too bad the activation process is so hopeless -- something you can't possibly discover during the trial period. If I'd known, I wouldn't have purchased this software.

  Thank you for submitting your feedback!
