• Limited Usenet capability that spawns adware

  GP_dadAugust 7, 2011

  Pros

  Nothing at all good about this product.

  Cons

  Primitive Usenet capabilities--it's not wirth your time. My "trial" version spawned a "survey" when I started the install and another dozen ads in the first five minutes of use. CNET should drop this abusive application.

  Summary

  Awful--avoid it.

• Trial-ware NOT Free

  paper_boyJuly 19, 2010

  Pros

  Unable to find pros as I aborted the install on learning that it is not what it claims to be.

  Cons

  The license states the software may only be used for 30 days after which it must either be paid for or deleted.

  Summary

  Misleading trial ware as freeware indicates bad business ethics and products of such companies is to be avoided.

• It's free, but useless without paying for service

  kschangFebruary 28, 2006

  Pros

  Can't think of anything to like, since I can't try it at all

  Cons

  The program itself is free, but you have to pay to use the proprietary search engine in order to download anything.

  Pros

  Useful product.

  Cons

  An interface is not very much clear. But due to the help the program can be considered useful.

• Service fee?

  BierMay 24, 2005

  Pros

  This program has many wonderful features all listed in the description.

  Cons

  I'd have to say this would be the program i've been looking for if it were not for them wanting my money, but wait I thought this was free? Well the program is, but the company wants to charge you a monthly service fee to use their search engine. I already can go on usenet for free why would I want to pay.

• The program is free. Using it is not!

  thespikyApril 1, 2005

  Pros

  You get ok results with their search engine.

  Cons

  They want you to "register" for a paid account to download files. Basically, the program you download is just a "job handler". Once you download it, you are asked to go to the progie's website to search for stuff. To actually download (get the download jobs) you have to pay. They provide some free newsgroups, but most have only BS content. Don't bother with this progie, use GrabIt, or something else free instead.
