  1. Review - Halite

    0.2.9 Revision 330 (Nov 7, 2007)

    Since when did they make money off uTorrent?

  2. Review - AOL Instant Messenger for Windows

    6.1.41.2 (May 3, 2007)

    I like it. I still use it, despite what anyone else says.

    Doesn't slow my computer down either.

  3. Review - Microsoft Internet Explorer for Windows XP

    7.0.5700.6 RC1 (Aug 24, 2006)

    You guys are only rating this a 'one' because you use another browser. Rate the product itself, not because you want to push it down.

    I use Firefox currently, but only because I can't install IE7 currently. Beta versions of IE break Microsoft Money's update utility.

  4. Review - BitTornado

    0.3.14 Experimental (Oct 28, 2005)

    For those of you looking for a better client GUI wise, use ABC. It uses the Bittorndado engine, but has queing, multiple torrents in one window, and more. Light memery use too.

    I'm only rating this a 3 because of the GUI and one window per torrent, which is why there's ABC.

    My personal favorite is uTorrent though.

  5. Review - Google Talk

    1.0.0.64 Beta (Aug 23, 2005)

    Jesus christ, your bashing it because it doesn't keep up the other IM software versions yet? For it's start it's good, lightweight, and small.

    MSN, AIM, Yahoo!, etc. all have better features because of how long they've been out. Give Google time and it will have the basic features needed.

  6. Comment - Xbox Live running normally after spotty holiday service

    1.0.0.64 Beta (Jan 2, 2008 - 1:00 PM)

    True story.

  7. Comment - CES Trend #8: Cheaper flash memory leads to new CE possibilities

    1.0.0.64 Beta (Jan 1, 2008 - 9:57 PM)

    I haven't had any problems with Xbox Live in the past two weeks. Not everyone is getting slammed, at least.

    I don't see how they're MS puppets here though...

  8. Comment - More Google users interested in cricket than iPhone, Paris Hilton

    1.0.0.64 Beta (Dec 17, 2007 - 9:20 PM)

    Just a side-note:

    When you say you've 'done tons of biatcches', while your posting comments on a site like BetaNews, you essentially, discredit yourself.

  9. Comment - Microsoft acknowledges Vista kernel elevation vulnerability

    1.0.0.64 Beta (Dec 15, 2007 - 8:57 PM)

    Hey, I haven't upgraded either. I've yet to be attacked, but it's nothing to do with the OS itself. That's just because I'm safe about what I do on the net. Plus, it is ugly and bloated. But the general community need a more secure system, they aren't net nerds.

    Vista has security features that haven't been exploited, and the overall process to hack Vista is tougher. XP is fine and dandy, but it's a bit more open than Vista because hackers know the system.

    XP is updating, patching holes, what have you; on both. But that doesn't mean XP is at Vista's standard in overall security.

  10. Comment - Seductive Russian chat bot tries to steal your private data

    1.0.0.64 Beta (Dec 15, 2007 - 1:11 PM)

    Hah. What they don't know, is I helped (accidentally) fund/operate many of those mafia-related bank scams.
