Advanced WindowsCare Personal

Version: 2.71

Obnoxious SPAM FILLED *****!

Pros: I thought I would like the simplicity of the interface. I also thought that the "Details" choice after each of the functions finished working was a nice touch.

Cons: What it does do is go through and find everything it can relating to the given repair function. Then it pushes the upgrades of the software on the end user because this particular download doesn't fix anything!

The end user gets no real repair functions at all. I already own AVG with all the goodies, but this package doesn't even recognize that it is installed and running. It pushed that software in a beg screen which can't be turned off except to use the x button at the upper left.

ALL this software does is act out a commercial right on my PC and I am *****ed! The reviews are misleading. Sadly I trusted them. BUT not again about this software. Each item that I sought out details about just brought me to a new demand or beg about upgrading to the Purchase version.

NO THANKS, 1 star is all it gets for the simple interface look.

Medicine Buddha Screen Saver

Version: 1

Concept was wonderful But!

Pros: The screen shot of the saver was very good. Being a person of eastern religious tastes it was appealing and attracted me a lot.

Cons: BUT it would not run on my VISTA system. Wish it could be updated to do so.

Snowy Winter Wonderland Screen Saver

Version: 1.3

Very pretty and does what a screen saver is supposed to do

Pros: Attractive, seasonal, easy on the eyes. Truly something to cherish in this age of global warming

Cons: The lower portion of the screen seems to remain stagnant. I know that the snow is piling up but perhaps panning across the screen, across the scene would give the illusion of movement for the whole screen instead of just the snow falling in the top 2/3 of the screen.

Planet Quest

Version: 4

Amazing and Beautiful

Pros: The entire program creates visual effects that mesmerize and entice one to watch and examine the scenes. This is pretty darn near perfect as screen savers go.

The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy Marvin Screensaver

Perfectly Depressing, hmmmm I'm so depressed!

Pros: Could not have captured the character more completely. Funny lines, expressiveness of the voice, eyes, oddly the whole animation makes this a funny and appealing screen saver.

Cons: Could wish that this character could walk out onto the desktop instead of the current white screen. Let it wander around the desktop and examine icons or do its thing. The white is fine but a bit boring.
