  "Doesn't anyone read small print anymore?"

  by the 1 knight on February 12, 2007

  Pros: No comment

  Cons: The Cnet editor has commented that following investigations, they believe this product to be clean of parasites. I for one have no reason to doubt that and as a rule, I usually trust their word over that of people who leave negative comments without either doing proper investigation or reading small print.

  The publsher of this software has a nice web site, with all the bells and whistles that should tell you they have some idea about what they are doing. Software development, like all technology has moved on these days. There are ways of installing safe advertising within software programs. IE: news pages etc.

  The terms and conditions posted at this products download page clearly state that a form of advertising will be installed with this product. Not that I think anything devious of that suggestion however, I prefer not to have that facility on my systems therefore I have opted to look elsewhere for a similar product.

  My cridentials? Software consultant. That's testing, reviews and recommending for those not reading this properly. Not development. Freewareontrial!

  "Works but requires work."

  by Nibinaearr on January 27, 2008

  Pros: This software lets you shred files, shred your recycle bin and shred free space on a drive using the US DOD and other recommended standards. It does this really well.

  Cons: I've had lots of problems using the software, including my "music tasks" such as "play selection" and "play all" not working for audio. If you want to fix this you have to get an app called shellexview and follow these instructions to disable the Zilldatanuker context menu entry:

  windowsxp.mvps.org/slowrightclick.htm

  "Free" can also be taken with a pinch of salt with this app. Every time you load it up it says "trial version of active skin control", whatever that means,

  Its also not that attractive. The skin looks as though it came from a 1999 GUI or something.

  Finally, it doesn't let you shred the free space on an SD memory stick, it only works on drives.

  I would still recommend it because it does the job, but at a price and it definitely needs improving.
