   :lol: So they removed it. Good deal. Apparently even from the older versions. Back to a 5 then. Good on you, Len0x.

   Still listed as freeware... You guys @ Betanews just not paying attention? Use Gordian Knot. It's free, it's spyware free, and they did all the coding. AGK is just a 'pretty' front-end for it that lost all respect when they started bundling spyware.

   WHERE CAN i FIND ANOTHER PEICE OF SOFTWARE THAT WILL DO THIS FOR FREE AND NOT GIVE ME SPYWARE? UM...GORDIAN KNOT COMES QUICKLY TO MIND. IT'S WHAT AUTOGK IS BASED OFF OF, AND THE GK CREW DID THE WORK, WHY SHOULD THIS TWIT MAKE MONEY OFF OF IT?
   
   Yes, danger from DAE is low. Yes, I read the license. I'm not completely uninformed, as you seem to believe.
   
   Fact remains that spyware is spyware, and packaged with a front-end to a high-quality Open Source product makes it even worse.
   
   So he put a useless piece of spyware in there in an effort to make some money off all his hard work...people seem to be accepting this. What's next? Gonna accept that too?
   
   Sorry, but I have higher standards for software that is based on Open Source.
   
   Regardless of it's quality, usefulness, cost, or lack thereof, it's now reduced to a spyware app.

   Awesome program. Best out there, never seen anything come close for ease of use and reliability. The support is the best, their forum response time and knowledge-base is unbeatable.
   
   It is exceedingly unfortunate, therefore, that they include DAE with it, requiring a score of 1 for packaging adware with a frontend for software that is both freely available and adware-free.
   
   If I were coding Gordian Knot, I would at this moment be searching for legal means to cease the distribution and development of this app until the adware is removed from the install because it could very easily turn people away from the bundle entirely...hurting not only AutoGK, but GK as a whole.
   
   (elMaestro... I couldn't care less that the bundled spyware is relatively harmless...nor do I care that it is plainly stated to be bundled in the agrreement. It is the simple fact that it is included *at all* in a frontend for software that is greatly usefull, free of charge, and malware free. They either need to remove the spyware or rename their product to dis-associate themselves from Gordian Knot completely.)

   Whatever you do, don't stop development because of one comment...please.
   
   I'd nearly kill for a decent free DL manager that has a minimal interface and little configurability if it's fast and small.
   
   Seriously. I'm so sick of bloated software it hurts. All a download manager needs is 4 dl threads, to have it ask where you want to save it, pause/resume, and status. That's it.
   
   It doesn't need to throttle bandwidth, there are 99 other programs that can do that.
   
   It doesn't need to sort them, catalogue them, or anything else.
   
   I don't need a huge window giving me 99 different stats I'll never want to know. Just one small window with a pause button on it, the name of the file, the speed and percentage.
   
   Yours looks like a great start in that direction. Please continue it.
   
   Thanks.

6. Comment - Apple does it again? Doctors Samsung images in court filing?

   1.0 Beta 6 (Aug 19, 2011 - 4:12 PM)

   Now I know that getting an injunction in that particular court over "Community Design" is about as easy as watching grass grow, but wouldn't you expect for the judge to at least want to see actual devices side-by-side, and not photos which as we all know, can be easily manipulated?
   
   I'm not saying that there is or isn't any merit to the complaint mind you, it's just that I am flabbergasted by the complete and total lack of any actual fact-finding seemingly necessary to get an injunction like this, especially when it involves companies possibly losing millions of dollars in sales.
   
   Some may argue that Apple chose this venue simply because of the lack of proof they would have to supply and use such an argument to bolster their belief that Apple is simply being combative, while others will no doubt point out that it is in Apple's best interest, regardless of merit, to take the fastest, most prudent route in the complaint, which serves Apple well; and that as such, it would have no bearing on the possible merit of the complaint.
   
   Hehh...
   
   Truly, one for those with a far more dizzying intellect than mine.

7. Comment - Did HP do the wrong thing by killing off TouchPad?

   1.0 Beta 6 (Aug 19, 2011 - 3:00 PM)

   The guys nickname is Leo Apocalypse. What more really needs to be said?

8. Comment - You bought HP TouchPad, it's discontinued, now what?

   1.0 Beta 6 (Aug 19, 2011 - 1:39 PM)

   Tablets can only do email? Surely you jest!

9. Comment - Nielsen: Most Android apps used sparingly

   1.0 Beta 6 (Aug 19, 2011 - 9:22 AM)

   I would hazard to guess it's not just Android, but *any* mobile platform. It is the nature of the beast. We don't spend hours (usually) in front of our phones, we spend seconds or minutes. This is a radical departure from our past usage of computing devices, or even our current ones at work.
   
   Does Nielsen have numbers regarding iOS, WP7, OS X, and Windows? I would bet iOS and WP7 are similar and the desktop OSes strikingly opposite.

    Try "Tasker" (Paid app) or search the market for "WiFi". You're bound to find dozens of them.
