   If you think WsW is bloated, you're nuts.

   Use to be great (4.0) but has now become slow and bloated with the new version (5.0). For example, compare the startup times and how long it takes the new version to load links within website-watcher when you initially start it up. Also, the new AutoBackup feature is S-L-O-W and runs by default every day.
   
   It's way too expensive for what it does and the licensing scheme is a rip off and is basically an effort by the author to extort money from existing users. Bug fixes should be free. Period.

   Due to licensing, I actually use "Update scanner" at work. Yes it is free, yes it can spot some changes automatically, but rating Website Watcher low and recommending Update Scanner over it is puzzling. It's like comparing... hum, actually, the capabilities of Website Watcher are so far beyond what Update Scanner provides that I can't even think of a suitable comparison.
   So Update Scanner works: true; it's free, true; it does the same thing as Website Watcher: that would make a white whale roll laughing on my ceiling.

   Totally awesome for what it is supposed to do. The low rating makes me wonder...sabotage?

   @ScottNY845:
   
   Honestly, I cannot comprehend why you are telling people that that Firefox-addon is better than Website-Watcher. Update Scanner is a nice addon for Firefox, but it's lightyears away from a full-fledged software like Website-Watcher. Everyone can tell that after five minutes of comparing. I monitor about 100 totally different website with it. And I don't wanna ever miss it. 5 Stars!!
