  1. Review - Java SE Runtime Environment (JRE)

    6 Update 17 (Dec 7, 2009)

    It is like a drug. You may hate it but you will have hard time working without it, as it became a de-facto standard for too much code.

    I will give it five stars not because it is a good software, but because it is essential, and with no compatible alternatives.

  2. Review - WinDjView

    0.5 (Dec 7, 2009)

    The latest version is 1.03,. Version 0.5 (which is the one mentioned here) is very old.

    Untill Fileforum.betanews fixes this, one can find it in http://windjview.sourceforge.net/

    I shall give it, however, 5 stars since it is fast, and I found no bugs in it.

  3. Review - AntiVir Personal Edition for Windows

    9.0.0.408 (Nov 24, 2009)

    Avira Antivir Personal Edition, is an excellent solution for the home user, looking for a feeware antivirus. Contrary to Avira's own information, the freeware version has good capabilities also in removing Trojans spyware and other threats. False positives are relativelt high but the average users are unlikely to suffer from this, as they are still quite rare. The freeware version has one annoyance - it opens a popup window to advertise the paid version whenever the antivirus is updates (once every work day). This might be an annoyance if it pops up during a game which requires fast response. Until you remove the ads, you lose points. As an antivirus it is better than most of the non-free antivirus programs, and is quite light on computer resources. Thus highy recommended.

  4. Review - Foxit Reader

    3.1.0.0824 (Aug 24, 2009)

    I am quite disapponted with the direction Foxit took lately. Version 3.0 is excellent if you are careful enough not to install the unwanted "value added" things, during the installation. Version 3.1 took things further that way. Now it really goes in the direction of becoming a bloatware. Who needs an internet search bar inside a PDF viewer? and now it seems that there is no way to turn off the internal ads (in version 3.0 there is).

    Now when I reverted back to version 3.0, it practically means that the version I use will no longer be maintained.

  5. Review - Foxit Reader

    3.0 Build 1506 (Mar 30, 2009)

    Foxit reader is a much better replacement for Adobe.
    Most of the problems it had in former versions are now solved.
    One should be careful during the installation if one wants Foxit to be free from an irrelevant toolbar, an irrelevant shortcut to e-bay. During installation, choose custom installation, then choose not to install the Foxit toolbar, and in the next installation screen choose not to add shortcuts to e-bay. Now, the only remained thing is to open the program, and under the vuew menu to uncheck the advertisement. This will permanently disable the internal advertisement, and will let Foxit be free from nagging/unwanted things.
