0.5.0 Beta (Feb 8, 2012)
I've downloaded a couple of version of this program hoping to see something working and useful, no such luck.
This latest release gives me a fatal error, send a log report and right away then gives me a second error. This is not the first version I've downloaded that won't run. The ones that do run don't seem to be too useful.
I'm really trying to find good in this program and maybe I'm missing the mark but I just can't find anything good to say about it.
0.9.19 (Feb 4, 2012)
Did not get far when I went to install. First screen right there at the bottom it makes it clear, collects non personally identifiable information (yeah right) and look open candy, nasty stuff there.
That's a deal killer for me.
5.0.1144 (Feb 3, 2012)
I really like SuperAntiSpyware (there was a time when I did not). The free version still great.
But for something to pay for eset security, it's just as good if not better then superantispyware plus you get tons more features and it does not cost much more. So if you are going free superantispyware is the way to go, if you are paying look else where like eset.
1.60 Beta (Jun 15, 2011)
A couple of thinks pop to mind, when installing pay attention to the window where you can select to download and install other programs that compliment this program. I did not download/install any but the last one at the bottom the NCH Software Internet Brower Toolbar is checked one of the mentions of this toolbar is free streaming tv etc. which anything streaming free tv always raises red flags for me.
Another note is every time you run the program there is a small nag screen to buy the full version so more like nagware then freeware.
And finally two folders are added to your start bar NCH Software Suite and Video Related Programs that contain a bunch of links to download and install other programs mostly from them but even so it does raise a few red flags and at minimum very unprofessional.
Other then that not too bad of a program but in my opinion there are better alternatives available.

Anti-Virus to the rescue, did not install this sucker with the nasty adware/malware.
GSpot it's an older program but it still does the job and doesn't include any nasty's. http://www.headbands.com/gspot/v26x/index.htm

Yeah what Tenoq said plus the little white lies like the one that goes to the effect that even our employees cannot view your files or something like that and then it turns out they always could.

Yeah chat programs are certainly going the way of the dinosaur. Yahoo had an edge with it's chat rooms and could of made something out of that but they let those go to hell in a hand basket and have lost that edge in a big way.

"It is our true belief that this movement has the capability to change the world."
They are delusional, vigilantes usually are. Maybe they'll rock it but only for a little while.
I'd tell them they are self important but they might fall off their thrones and hurt themselves so I'll let a judge do that sometime in the future.

They have a lot to be afraid of, for any of them to get caught (and it will happen) will not be good long term jail time, not to mention if the information they released about the officers in Arizona should it be used by a bad guy looking for revenge. Arizona has the death penalty I do believe and any lulszec member in that area or who could be transfer to face charges there would be in really deep (you know) then.
At minimum jail time and can't touch a computer or anything similar (like tablets, smartphone etc) for a very, very long time.
