GrabJPG

Version: 1.8

Excellent JPG finder

Pros: Very easy to use. Results are accurate.

I found the interface quite logical. The results are displayed in a thumb type layout but can be viewed full sized by just holding the mouse over the image you want to view.

All images can be stored where ever you like.

Not only can you get good results by entering a name or subject but you can enter a URL & GrabJPG searches the site for images.

All this is done in very easy stages. I've tried quite a few other JPG grabbers but I've found the results far from accurate & a lot of small photos & banner rubbish is included in the results.

GrabJPG does not do this. You get accurate decent results.

Cons: None so far.

Super Ad Blocker

Version: 2.0.0.2400

Not bad-but!

Pros: Certainly blocks many banner ads & pop ups but not all of them by any means. But having said that it is way above average.

Cons: There is a slight delay before it "kicks in" & blocks the ads. This is annoying.

The other thing I don't like, is the limited number of times you can re install this software.

If you have trouble with your computer & have to re install your operating system, you have to go begging to them to have "extra" allowable installs.

Link Commander

Version: 2.5 Build 345

One of the better Bookmark Managers

Pros: This bookmark Manager felt right as soon as I tried it. I would have to disagree with the previous reviewer about the so called responsive software team. I sent an E Mail to them & never got a reply!

Having said that, the software is good apart from a few minor niggles.

Cons: One of the niggles, is that Link Commander will stop your computer closing down unless you close Link Commander down first. This needs to be fixed QUICKLY, as this is very annoying.

NetMarks Manager

Version: 3.0.1

Good Bookmark Manager

Pros: Netmarks has a similar feel to Link Commander. Out of the two, I prefer Netmarks. Unlike Link Commander, the staff at Netmarks replied to my E Mails & were very helpful. I've found Netmarks to be very stable.

Cons: None

Opera

Version: 8.5

Excellent Browser

Pros: I've read how some people think Opera has a cluttered screen. Well I've turned most things off to my liking & Opera, has to be the cleanest browser out there. Much more screen is visable.

The tabs work the way I like tabs to work as well. One left click on the cross to close. Nice & simple!

Cons: I Don't like the Email element but you don't have to install it if you don't want it. I still use OE with Opera, no problem at all.
