   Review - Paint Shop Pro

   11.11 (Jan 7, 2007)

   11.11 installs Protexis Licensing files into \Windows\System32 and also runs them as a SERVICE. If you uninstall PSP11.11 it does NOT uninstall the Protexis files, which still continue to run, using up RAM.
   
   11.0 installed a SIMILAR, but not IDENTICAL file into the PSP folders under \Programs. I hate programs that install licensing stuff and then don't do you the "favor" of uninstalling them after you uninstall the original program.
   
   Will not buy PSP again, though I'vfe been using it for years.

   Review - AllPeers

   0.50 Beta (Aug 25, 2006)

   As soon as I installed it, Firefox started asking me for the master password. Which I didn't have set. Uninstalling it fixed the issue. Plus I was unable to register.

   Great, but the author's homepage still only has 1.02

   Review - QuickTime Alternative (QT7)

   1.68 (Jan 14, 2006)

   Since QuickTime 7.0.4 has so many problems that Apple has released an uninstaller to downgrade to 7.0.1, should this be installed?

   Review - RoboForm

   6.5.2 (Oct 16, 2005)

   Great program BUT this particular VERSION is pretty bug. I found 2 pretty obvious bugs since I installed it ... first time since I started using this program that I've found a buggy release.

6. Comment - TiVo debuts ads during fast-forward and pause

   6.5.2 (Dec 9, 2008 - 4:52 PM)

   They use the term fast-forwarding users to be clever, but if you read Paragraph 2:
   
   "Using the TiVo Pause Menu, advertisers can, for the first time, reach audiences with targeted product messages displayed within the PAUSE SCREEN of a Live or Timeshifted program."
   
   Check other sites besides this one. No one mentions FF. Only Pause.
   
   Also, it is only Series 2, as I said.

7. Comment - TiVo debuts ads during fast-forward and pause

   6.5.2 (Dec 9, 2008 - 3:24 PM)

   The fast-forward part is incorrect. It only affects pause. It is also only being rolled out to Series 2 DVRs for now.

8. Comment - Palm hangs on for another quarter

   6.5.2 (Sep 20, 2008 - 1:07 AM)

   The biggest problem: lack of subsidization. Why pay $500 for this when you can buy an iPhone for $200?

9. Comment - Steve Case Looks to Revolutionize Money

   Your link to the RevMoney site is broken. It should be http://www.revolutionmoney.com (currently links back to yourself).

10. Comment - Firefox 2.0 vs. IE7 in Vista: How Close?

    6.5.2 (Oct 25, 2006 - 6:32 PM)

    The problem with IE7 is the sheer number of bugs. One one of my PCs once I install it Maxthon crashes. So does Firefox with IETab. On another PC Maxthon works fine, but IE7 renders ABC News in a very screwed up manner, while on the "crashing" PC IE7 renders ABC News fine.
    
    I don't want to switch between browsers on diff PCs simply because MS hasn't figured out the config diffs between diff. PCs. Eye candy is fine, but I want something that works.
