Reviewed Spybot - Search & Destroy (v2.4) 2.4.40March 2 - 2:54 AM ET
Still appreciate some of Spybot's functions (immunization of browsers, hosts). Not sure it's needed these days (modern antivirus do much of this in realtime). The 2.x interface is sadly still a total mess, clunky, modulated, loathsome. Always... Read full review |

Finally made the switch to different software (Deluge, recommended), due to uTorrent's bloat and probable future plans from parent company (more bloat, ads). Goodbye uTorrent, you were great for a few years, while you were independent. Read full review |

XnView is pretty incredible. I first tried out the "lite" (portable) version, and really appreciated all of its customization options, from colors to keyboard shortcuts. The interface is not bad, and also highly customizable (from super detailed... Read full review |

Reviewed ReNamer 4.1October 11 - 9:35 AM ET
Thanks for the news, smaragdus. You are absolutely correct, sadly. The new Lite (freeware) version is limited to 5 presets and 5 rules, which is a significant downgrade (if not unusable) for many users of ReNamer. The Pro version is over $20. I... Read full review |

Reviewed AMD Catalyst Drivers for Windows 15.10 BetaMay 29 - 6:27 PM ET
Finally hit a big problem with AMD's (notorious) Catalyst drivers: It seems my display driver has not been getting updated (via these Catalyst Suites) since a few weeks after my fresh install of Windows 8 in 2012. I am still unable to update the... Read full review |
