"No Malware Easy Installation LOT OF COOL TOOLS! GREAT!"
Pros: I hope these other reviewers don't convince someone to not try the program. I scanned this with Avast and there was no malware. I believe that person who said that had a false positive (probably with Norton or an overzealous program because it offers OPTIONS that are normally reserved for Microsoft). This is sooo much better than Windows Scheduler! Very easy installation. The important words look like English words anyhow. Your machine will reboot at the end so close all your programs. There are awesome tools in here, aside from and alarm, you can schedule unzipping, directory changes, cleaning, starting and ending programs, power up and power downs in all kinds of combination. I don't know about the internet connection thing cause I have satellite and I'm always on. I highly recommend trying this program. Lots of options for personalization. It is safe and an easy download for anyone who has downloaded a few programs before. You will have to click around to become familiar with things. It's user friendly, but personally I may have designed some things differently. Another option is to copy the text (of the agreement or something) and go online translator if you want to be assured of the agreement. If you're looking for a good scheduler I'd definitely recommend this. I have lots of limtations with my satellite and three computers I'd like to synchronize and I can do this with this program. Looks like there's some website options too, I don't need them, but check it out if you're interested. I think it's great!
Cons: Well, installation in English would be nice..but that's cause I'm an American. If I was German, I'd say the program should be defaulted to German instead of American. Seems like a little problem to me because there's a million free online translator programs available you can just copy or type the text to and it'll translate it.

Version: Z-Cron 4.3
Pros: the software works fine.
Cons: there are a few flaws. the "connect to the internet" tool does not work. the installation is in some wierd language. you cannot select a specific time to schedule. they have provided all times of the day at five minute intervals (4:19 pm wont work!). it is a bit cumbersome.

"Nice, easy to set-up and dependable"
Pros: Nice, easy to set-up and dependable; period.
Cons: The interface looks dull and old
Summary: I've tested slawdog's on my XP but at times it'll produce "out of memory" error and failed to shut-down. I'd set and left Zcron for several days already and didn't notice any error. Logs also show that it did what it's supposed to do on the dot. read more
