  1. Review - Advanced Invisible Keylogger

    2.1.8 (Mar 29, 2010)

    This program has the dubious honor of being (as of this writing) absolutely the WORST program listed on FileForum.
    17 votes and 1.0 average rating
    Simply brilliant!
    Too bad that it hasn't been updated in a while. I'm sure a lot of people are looking forward to a new version :D

  2. Review - ImgBurn

    2.5.1.0 (Mar 17, 2010)

    Ouch! It's adware now :(
    While the Ask Toolbar during install thing could be regarded as "borderline" adware, the permanent menu items (under "Tools") classify this program as definitely adware.
    Oh, well, I guess I won't be donating again to Imgburn anytime soon

  3. Review - Microsoft Internet Explorer Platform Preview

    1.9.7.7.45.6019 (Mar 17, 2010)

    Their Q&A are worth reading:

    For now a neutral 3 stars

  4. Review - Skype for Windows

    4.2.0.155 (Mar 11, 2010)

    This is where the Skype people hide the FULL setup files, release notes and changelogs:
    https://developer.skype.com/WindowsSkype/

    Just WHY they don't make all of this more accessible is beyond me

  5. Review - Maxthon Cloud for Windows

    1.6.7.33 (Mar 3, 2010)

    Maxthon 1.x is much better than any of the versions that came after it (v2, v3). I'm glad it's still being updated.

  6. Comment - From the ME: Betanews releases Alpha

    1.6.7.33 (Jan 14, 2009 - 8:11 PM)

    I agree 100%
    By the way, the "new" Betanews is bad, very bad .... but the "new" Fileforum is EVEN WORSE

    And, since no one has posted it before, and the phrase just begs to be written: "If it ain't broke ..." (you know the rest, don't you?)

  7. Comment - Academic libraries pave a new path away from Google

    1.6.7.33 (Oct 14, 2008 - 8:09 PM)

    "78 terabytes (738.8 million pages, 1,713 tons, 25 miles)"

    After all these years it had to be Angela Gunn who taught me how much a terabyte weighs ...

  8. Comment - No surprise: 'Windows 7' will be Windows 7

    1.6.7.33 (Oct 13, 2008 - 11:32 PM)

    And after you've looked at the output, check out this list which explains Windows versions:
    http://en.wikipedia.org/...ws#Timeline_of_releases

    What I DO find odd is that Windows 7's version will be 6.1 :)

  9. Comment - No surprise: 'Windows 7' will be Windows 7

    1.6.7.33 (Oct 13, 2008 - 11:23 PM)

    That technology is so dead people can't even spell it. What Western Union used to send for 145 years (since before the Civil War up until two years ago) were telegraMs

  10. Comment - Mufin upends musical expectations for curious listeners

    1.6.7.33 (Oct 13, 2008 - 7:36 PM)

    "And the process of adding a track is trivial for Mufin -- its system can analyze an entire album in seconds --"

    I wonder if they'll keep modifying and improving the algorithm. I guess they will. And, in that case, if they'll have to re-scan the entire database again to update the similarities when they change/update algorithms. If that's the case, adding new tracks won't be so "cheap" in the long term.

    Interesting read, anyway
