Pros
Offered for free and that's about all.
Cons
As soon I hit download I had 3 different securities including Windows itself warning me of Trojan Virus being detected.
Summary
Unless one wishes to take the risk of injecting Trojan into their machine, I would suggest staying away.
This opinion is only based on my personal experience of lately trying to download this setup.
Pros
Not a one!
Cons
This program installs then doesn't run correctly. On top of it, it adds MORE programs you didn't want, never asking if you want to install them or not. Avoid it!

All that junk that it tries to install can be SELECTED to not install them. All you have to do is read the text while installing and then make the correct selections so that only the program you want is installed. Just slowdown when installing and read, don't just click accept. Remember there is a "decline" button and other options that limit the addons.
Pros
Fast downloads and it's free.
Cons
Interface take a while to work out.
Summary
This program is like Concord vs the Wright Brothers when it comes to speed compared to its main competitor, HTTrack. Once you get the hang of things it does its job very well. My only real complaint is number of messages it sends telling you what it is doing. It's a minor complaint, however, and I'll take this over HTTrack any day.
Pros
I've just downloaded a 3000 page site with 12,000 images and a few videos, totalling just under 1 gig. It's done the job well.
Cons
None found so far.
Summary
I'm using Win7. I made sure the file I downloaded was the correct size (2.9mb). I found nothing dodgy had been installed and it had automatically installed into the x86 compatible program drawer. I reckon some of the previous comments must either be professionals putting down free products or people mixing up their download files.
Pros
I can't see any pros at all
Cons
I could not get it to download a website.
Summary
In theory the UI for this program should be simple: One should only need to enter a URL and a folder to download it to. Then click a Go button. In practice this program has the most oblique UI I've ever seen for such a simple product. Astounding incompetence.
Pros
Clean (tested in VirusTotal and Symantec).
Cons
Not nice interface.
Summary
Average program. No viruses. Not great.
Pros
print to a pdf
Cons
It will Hijack your computer, load MixiDJ crap all through your programs files and registry. Avoid at all costs. The fact that this is allowed is terrible. Sourceforge should be more responsible and BLOCK any more access to this terrible download.
Summary
SourceForge now disseminates malware via programs like PDF Creator which is jammed packed with malware like MixiDJ. Avoid at all costs.

As with ALL software, but particularly freeware, you need to click through installs carefully. ALL from cnet come packaged with stuff you need to de-select. It's NOT in the software itself.
Pros
When I used this program in the past it worked excellent.
Cons
now I cannot remove it from my computer and I keep getting the win_x64 box stating the directory does not exist do you want to create one? OK Cancel
no matter which button i choose it is in an infinite loop???

Pros
May work if you give it all the permissions it requires.
Cons
Loads spyware via bundled download. Changes your homepage. Switches your default web search to Conduit through a sketchy add-on called "mixi-dj". Takes a good while to remove it all. See http://www.411-spyware.com/remove-mixi-dj-toolbar for instructions.
Summary
Installs spyware, hijacks homepage and search engine. Avoid.

Pros
None! what a piece of shit.
Cons
For starters it didn't work, so I removed it, but get this the twats used the login details I'd entered (for the site that didn't download) and logged into the site! As the site doesn't allow multiple logins, they've pissed me off no end. Password will be changed when possible.
Summary
Don't trust these bastards and avoid this piece of spyware.
