Napster

Version: 4.5

Awful, terrible suckage

Pros: n/a

Cons: Nothing but trouble with Napster's Website and app (XP Pro, 1G RAM). Their posted disclaimers and policies are indecipherable. Customer service is robotic, totally disinterested. If your paid-for download is interrupted, you're SOL.

I intend to notify the artists whose music I bought through Napster of what a shabby operation they're associated with.

Run away!

KeyText

Version: 3.07

Definitely worth the shareware fee

Pros: Another memory-resident utility that I use constantly to insert repetitive text into any application, e.g. usernames, credit card numbers (yes, it's password-protected and encrypted), email addresses, html tags, etc etc etc. Macros and variables are particularly useful.

Cons: No complaints!

Product:

Alot Notes

Version: 1.1

Extremely useful

Pros: (Also known as Magik Notes)

Stays active in memory, tray icon to hide/unhide.

All notes remain open, with a handy tree directory.

Supports spreadsheet-formatted notes as well as text.

Overall excellent for a notepad app -- I use it CONSTANTLY.

Cons: Like Notepad, Alot Notes doesn't support font styles or special characters, although the app's basic font can be changed to whatever you like. The Undo/Redo buffer doesn't support multiple changes, only the last one performed. No drag-n-drop.

Product:

Data Disc Recovery (DDR)

Version: 0.9.9.10

Too scary

Pros: Freeware

Cons: I had lost access to a partition, launched DDR but it's too far from intuitive to give me enough confidence to use it. The instructions are very brief, written in your choice of Polish or comedy sketch English. Not for me, thanks! (I ended up reformatting the partition with XP's 'Computer Management' module, re-loaded my files from Carbonite. Easy, and worked like a charm.)

Product:

BitComet

Version: 0.88

Crashed XP Pro

Pros: n/a - v .086/.087 are still available at bitcomet.com

Cons: Crashed the system repeatedly, requiring hard boot to recover. Removed, re-downloaded, re-installed, same result. Run away! Run away!
