I'd give it minus 5 if I could

Pros: Under XP the computer is almost unusable when News Rover is doing anything. When asked to download the headers from a large group the download stops every minute or so to organise and sort the list it currently has then appears to start from the beginning again. As a result it takes forever. If downloading something the search function just stops working. I could go on (and on and on) but I'll just finish by saying - it's garbage.

Cons: The uninstall feature worked :)

Wouldn't run

Pros: Don't know as it didn't work

Cons: Tried to run it and it said that I have to install .NET framework. As this is already installed on my PC that seems a bit weird. I don't see the point of distributing software that doesn't work without the user having to go through a load of troubleshooting.

At least the guy isn't trying to rip anyone off by charging. Maybe he'll sort out the teething troubles in the next version.

Just a joke

Cons: I downloaded a few wallpaper switchers off CNET to try and couldn't believe how bad some of the software is. This is yet another faulty and badly designed piece of junk that someone thinks we'll be mug enough to pay money for. The free programs are way better: maybe because the authors care about the software rather just grabbing your money.

Avoid this, it's rubbish.
