• Not working, or working but no idea how

  Pros

  none found

  Cons

  Mysterious software that does absolutely nothing No clear instructions or workflow on the interface

  Summary

  The interface does not take you through any process and is left for guessing. You can't tell if this is a wizard or the actual software. does it install, or work as an EXE wherever you put it as long as the xml is in the same directory (no clean installation into a system directory with start menu icons - lazy programmers?). You can't tell if this large window of settings should remain on as long as you want the server to work (no minimize to system tray setting), or close it when you are done setting the thing and it should begin working. I created a profile and put an IP address in it. I had to go online to look up list of IP address blocks for each country. No help or examples or a list of possible IPs on the software. Then there was the port - any idea how should that be used? Then, I was asked to restart Firefox. I did, all excited about my new IP. ...and what do you know - my old IP remained visible to the world and the softwarte - who knows what it was doing if anything. A word of advice to the developer - your software may do what you want it to do for you on your own computer, but without clear help, interface and workflow, your user experience is so bad and mysterious that you are really wasting everyone's time and your own reputation. Get someone who knows how to do usability and understands the concept of best practices before distributing your creation to the masses
