  1. Review - VLC (VideoLAN) for Windows

    2.0.1 (Apr 27, 2012)

    (Reviewing on Win7 64bit)

    Brilliant media player!

    This version fixed all issues I experienced with v.2.0.0. Significant improvements in image, sound and subtitle quality. Many useful features and playback customisation options (e.g. GPU acceleration & advanced rendering). Excellent work!

  2. Review - TrueCrypt

    7.1a (Apr 27, 2012)

    Very good software!

    This is a must have program for people who need file encryption. Easy to use and very powerful.

    However, to my own great surprise, this is NOT open source software. Despite sincere and continuous effort from the open source community to help TrueCrypt's developers change their license agreement terms to comply with a free software license, the TrueCrypt license agreement is still NOT compatible with any free software license, and the program is for that reason part of Fedora's Forbidden Software list.

    However, this is a legal definition issue, and does not /necessarily/ affect the end-user to a degree as negative as suggested.

    The license agreement can be found here:

  3. Review - TheSage's English Dictionary and Thesaurus

    3.1.1.1742 (Apr 27, 2012)

    (Reviewing v4.5.1784, on Win7 64bit)

    Beautiful!

    The perfect English dictionary for looking up words, meanings, spellings and alternative words. However, fileforum has dropped the ball on providing the most recent version. Get it from their home page.

  4. Review - Sumatra PDF

    2.0.1 (Apr 27, 2012)

    Best PDF viewer on the globe!

    After about a year of usage, I've had no issues. Adobe Reader v 10.1.3 setup file: 52 MB. SumatraPDF setup file: 4 MB. Speaks for itself.

    Fast, light & just right!

  5. Review - IZArc

    4.1.6 (Apr 27, 2012)

    Very useful!

    After years of using this program, I've nothing bad to say about it. Good archive support, but my favourite feature is ISO format conversion. It has saved me a lot of trouble.
