  1. Review - Winamp 5 Full

    5.33 (Feb 18, 2007)

    Been using Winamp for years, although I have been experimenting with foobar2000 recently.

    The developers should be commended for adding Unicode support. However, the Unicode support for song names (an MP3's title) in Winamp's taskbar button is still not working. Non-Western characters still appear as ????? for the last few versions. I thought this would be too obvious to miss.

  2. Review - mpTrim

    2.13 (Feb 18, 2007)

    Thanks to the author. This is a handy piece of software to have. Great for simple trimming chores.

    Still, would like to point out its Freeware status is not 100% true: it only reads up to 7 minutes of music.

  3. Review - Adobe Reader for Windows 2000/XP/Vista/2008

    8.0.0 (Dec 6, 2006)

    Agreed that the install size is too big for a simple PDF file reader. Still, as software goes, version 8 improves a lot over the 7.0.x versions, and it IS meant to be more than a simple PDF file reader, unlike Foxit (which I also use on some of my machines).

    I also appreciate the fact that version 8 no longer creates a new "Adobe" folder in My Documents everytime I use it as before, which was very annoying. Hope to see more "slimming down" in the future.

  4. Review - Screamer Radio

    0.3.9 Beta (Jun 18, 2006)

    I fell in love with this little gem immediately. It makes listening to internet radio so simple and satisfying.

    Would like to recommend to the author that the Edit, Save, Reload Favourites options be moved to the Favourites menu.

  5. Review - Winamp 5 Full

    5.21 (May 9, 2006)

    I am using the Lite version. Every time I start the program my newly-installed firewall will report that Winamp is trying to connect to xerodes.gigaweb.cz. Any idea what this is about? Has anybody else experienced this?
