• DON'T DO IT you only get problems

  promytiusJune 12, 2012

  Pros

  There are no pros here, just unfindable programs, legacy registry entries, and see Cons for more

  Cons

  This is crap. You get no software, just a hidden program that will not uninstall even with REVO Pro. It is there in the tray but I cannot find it. After the "install" that goes to a very suspect folder - they chose \windows\system32\netdd\mru\ms\mg !!! You get sent to a website where you can PAY (remember this was "FREE") for software to access whatever it was that installed.

  Summary

  RIPOFF - and I think DANGEROUS, as it won't go away, it created a hole in my firewall, and for all I know I'm now under some thug's control from Inbekacantstan... Avoid this error.

• Product does nothing

  Jerry9254July 13, 2011

  Pros

  There are none.

  Cons

  Attempts to overwrite DLL files, no program group, no shortcut, no executable. Found the uninstall file, however immediately after uninstalling I received a hit from my anti-virus software.

  Summary

  If you're skeptical of on-line reviews and think you might try this anyway--don't. Save yourself the curiosity and the hassle.

• Trash. Pure Trash.

  x_djmobo_xApril 6, 2011

  Pros

  None. This thing is garbage.

  Cons

  Did not install as advertised on site. Does not have a shortcut, does not even exist after install. Upon restart was prompted asking what program I want to use to open dll files. My computer should not be asking me this.

  Summary

  I need help getting rid of this horrid thing. I told it not to replace files when it asked, so I'm hoping I avoided most serious damage. However, my computer is telling me that the folder it was installed to does not exist, even after un-hiding files. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
