    Given that some of this software doesn't support 64-bit and is mostly your typical Google semi-finished mess, I'll pass.

    Oh, and read those EULAs, people!

    THREE stars at best.

    Don't rate a product low just because you're too dumb to understand it.

    I, personally, would rate this about a 4, but I figured a 5 wou
    ld help (at least a little) to offset your ignorance.

    The point of this pack is that it downloads and installs all the software automatically (no clicking "next" or picking an installation location) and keeps it up to date - you guessed it - automatically.

    It also has two exclusive programs now that you can't get for free anywhere else. Norton Security Scan (blech) and Spyware Doctor Standard Edition. Couldn't care less about the Norton crap, but Spyware Doctor is a great anti-spyware program.

    Google has made all of this software free and (most importantly) easy for the average PC user to use.

    Minus recommending Real Player and Norton, I think it's a great effort by Google to help the computer-illiterate.

    I also don't see the point of providing this 'pack.' Unlike SBC and AOL, Google is providing an optional download that users have to seek out, and there are many applications in here that are really not internet essentials.

    I would rather that Google spotlight each of these programs as separate downloads on their site and if needed, package in Google Desktop and Toolbar as optional installs with each application, like it is with CCleaner and other Google sponsored applications.

    I don't see any real reason to download this googlepack. If you would like to download you can download them individually and probably you will be getting the latest version as well. For example there is Adobe Acrobat reader 8.0 can be downloaded from various sources why should some one download Adobe Acrobat reader 7.0 I personally think Active Virus Shield is offering free protection so it owuld be would be better than downloading a shareware i.e. Norton Antivirus 2005.
