   Review - Coranti Multi-Engine AntiVirus & AntiSpyware

   2012 1.5.6.370 (Jan 26, 2012)

   I haven't used this (as I suspect the previous poster also hasn't) but I have seen a few test results of it. In the VB100 comparative results, this consistently appears in the top 5 (number 3 in the latest) for giving the best protection. I have read that one downside is the impact it has on the system, probably due to it having multiple engines. For that reason, and the price, I give it a 4.

   Review - SUMo

   2.13.5.112 (Jul 14, 2011)

   Completely ruined by installing around 8 different addons into Firefox without asking for permission. One additional item was mentioned during the install, and I was given the opportunity to decline it, which I did. But it then went ahead and installed these addons without asking. At least one of the addons attempted to hijack the search bar in Firefox also.
   
   If I could give this a MINUS 5, I would. Be warned !

   Review - Mozilla Firefox (v5) for Windows

   5.0 (Jun 20, 2011)

   This is the Release Candidate. That means it MIGHT be the final release, unless something drastic happens that forces them to build a second one. It's due to go final this week.
   
   However, I give it FIVE stars since it's an excellent program, and marking it down to 1 star (like some) just because it's not necessarily the final would be stupid. You mark the program according to how good it is, not according to how well fileforum got it right in labelling it.

   4.0 (Mar 21, 2011)

   As usual, a truly excellent program.

   Review - Mozilla Firefox (v4) for Windows

   4.0 Beta 11 (Feb 8, 2011)

   An excellent browser as always, and version 4 seems to be coming along very nicely. A number of addons are already compatible, and more should be updated as the release draws nearer.

6. Comment - Apple lied to get that injunction against Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1?

   Not sure whether you're actually apologising, or think your original post was meant to be funny. To be clear - the original post was revolting, and contained items (insulting a persons mother etc) which are just plain WRONG. Again, I'm not sure if the 'split personality' reference is meant to be a joke, but it is quite clear there's something wrong with you.

   This post is absolutely disgusting and a complete disgrace .....

8. Comment - UK finally makes ripping your own DVDs and CDs legal

   4.0 Beta 11 (Aug 4, 2011 - 7:47 PM)

   Now that's odd. I can't think of one person I know who's ever abided by this law anyway. So now we're supposed to celebrate? Hmm ...
   
   On another note, I read that on the other hand, this new decision means music prices will go up here in the UK. Apparently everyone's in agreement that it IS obviously wrong to make a copy of that CD for our own use. So it's 'only fair' to charge a small subsidy to offset the fact they're now going to allow us to do it. So no, they aren't bowing to common sense after all - still bowing to the music bosses.

9. Comment - My mother is getting a Chromebook

   You're obviously talking about gmail webmail there. The mail.google.com is the server for accessing mail using IMAP, which is what he said in his article.

10. Comment - Want Thunderbird 5 to be more like Outlook? Try Lightning

    4.0 Beta 11 (Jul 30, 2011 - 6:54 PM)

    Thanks for the heads up about this - quite a nice bit of software that I've already tried previous versions of.
    
    I'd already read about this update on the downloadcrew site. Note though, that the link there for the Windows version actually downloads the Mac version.
