5 stars (Roxio Easy Media Creator 7.5 review) - This is a very simple program to use & has many nice features. I'm mainly using it to make picture videos & it does a good job at it. 4 stars (One of the better consumer Video Editing/DVD Authoring solutions) - I am suprised to see so many people trash this suite so quickly. I never use it for burning CDs/DVDs/Audio player (Nero, Winamp anyone?), but a combination of Roxio Capture, Videowave Professional and DVD Builder is really good for camcorder DV->DVD video editing and conversion. Features include support for still images, videos of differing resolutions/specs, video effects, overlays, text overlays, etc. you name it. Pinnacle Studio 9 is still a notch better in terms of features (the only feature that this suite doesn't seem to have - manipulation of audio volume of video tracks in the timeline), but its wickedly unstable and gets my Oscar for the most crash friendly program. Call it my uncanny luck, but Studio used to corrupt my projects just after I spend hours editing the video and done with it making me start all over again. I was looking for a stable alternative and this suite has saved my day. 1 stars (Extremely Unstable Program) - After spending 6 weeks capturing and editing a video, which the program did well, the burning process is extremely unstable. It will burn the video to a DVD-RW (rewrightable) disk but not to a non rewritable disk. I have tried 4 different manufacturers DVD disk and after 2 1/2 hours it takes to burn, I get error messages on every one and the disks will not play. I have wasted time and disks (they are unusable after the burning) to get no results. I have spent hours with Roxio's direct email support and with phone support and get "this is most unusual" but no solutions. I have deleted and reinstalled the program 3 times, as suggested by tech support, and still get the same results. I have sent for a back up disk as support also suggested that the original disk may be faulty....

1 stars (Dont waste your money) - It seems to protect my computer alright. However I constantly have problems when I startup. It has problems updating, and constantly says my user ID is incorrect. However when I restart several times this gets straight. Also I have to turn off the firewall each time I log on to Hotmail and some other webpages since I still havent figured out how to allow them. Also the parental controls are total crap. It would be nice if it would block what it says it does and if you could put in whatever addresses you wanted. 1 stars (WARNING) - After being unable to successfully install this software on our computer (for some reason, the software thinks our computer has less than the required minimum 128 megabytes of RAM, when it has 2.5 GIGABYTES of RAM), we called Panda Software. Please note: THERE IS NO TOLL FREE NUMBER FOR THIS COMPANY IN THEIR PACKAGE INSERTS. The representative we spoke with informed us that the software WILL NOT WORK on systems with more than two gigabytes of RAM. Personally, I would recommend buying a different antivirus program. 2 stars (don't download) - I bought the CD last year and had no trouble at all. The product was absolutely wonderful. Then, I downloaded the update from the website this year and had nothing but trouble until I uninstalled it. They did issue a full refund. I may try the physical product again. ...

5 stars (PC Relocator Works) - Although it did not work as quickly or effortlessly as I imagined, it is much faster and easier than any other method I've used. The included 2m transfer cable was not long enough for my installed set-up, but it worked fine with a USB extension cable. The better you prepare the old PC and the new PC, the better it works. I transferred from Win98SE to XPPro with very few issues after the move (some minor OS incompatibilities, easily resolved in XPPro). Do read everything before starting. I recommend this product without reservations to everyone. 5 stars (Great product!) - Very easy to use. Just followed the instructions and all of my data was relocated to my new computer. 1 stars (Program nightmare and customer service gulag) - I'm not a novice user and read the instructions carefully before proceeding to move to a new computer with Windows XP Pro and Office 03. I did not try to migrate programs, but only files. What a mess! The program must have moved registry settings (who asked it to?) and the new computer was so screwed up I thought I was going to have to reformat. Meanwhile, customer service was virtually non-existent. When things get screwed up, one needs help right away...not in 48 hours or more! Then I filed for a refund and they've been dragging their heels (and ignoring last few emails) on that front although I qualified and presented all pertinent paperwork. It's been nearly two months! Although I was willing to try and let them resolve issues as their sales hype had assured me, that promise proved to be more fiction and less reality. Absolutely unsatisfactory! RUN...RUN AS FAST AS YOU CAN FROM THIS PROGRAM! I haven't posted reviews in the past, but this experience was so bad that I wanted to add my voice to the chorus of discontented buyers. And wish I had taken those negative reviews to heart before I purchased this particular program! ...

3 stars (Average Product) - I was not that impressed by this product. It found some spyware, but I found "Scan Spyware" [...] software to be much more comprehensive and offer better protection. I am in no way affiliated with that company, I just like their product. 5 stars (Pest Patrol Review) - This excellent product removes all manner of spyware and keeps the computer running at top efficiency. 5 stars (Blows away the competition) - I have installed this on multiple occasions, many times on PC's which were virtual "typhoid Marys" with many instances of spyware. Some PCs had "Spybot" or "Adaware" or some other such product which was having no positive effect in either identifying, let alone eliminating, the threats. After installing and running this, the program provides very specific instructions and explanation of what's going on. You can set up automatic updates for complete protection going forward. Great software, great price. ...

2 stars (You Synchronize) - You Synchronize for the Macintosh may be the best synchronizer available, but it is not yet ready for prime time. It operates very slowly and is prone to failure, the announcement of which is written so poorly as to be incomprehensible. Neither the documentation nor the company FAQs address the failure to synchronize, and inquiries have produced no results. When the product works as advertised it seems to work well, even if at a snail's pace. However, when the synchronization fails one wonders what has happened, and there is no assurance that data has not been lost. ...

1 stars (Disappointing version of what was once great software) - Several years ago, I bought PC Relocator 4.0 when I acquired a new computer. Version 4.0 allowed you to pick and choose what programs and files you wanted to transfer. It took some time to set up both computers and to select the many files and programs I wanted to transfer, but once that was done the transfer went flawlessly. When I recently bought a new computer, the first thing I did was go to the store and buy the latest version, PC Relocator 6.0, remembering how well it worked the first time around. To my dismay, I found what James Honeycutt described in an earlier review. Instead of allowing you to pick and choose which software and files to move, you have to move everything. It's all or none. Since I planned to upgrade most of my software, I wanted to move just two or three programs to the new computer, and I wanted to move only about half of my documents. The rest was older stuff that I was going to delete. As Mr. Honeycutt described, in order to pick and choose the things you want to move, you have to buy the Ultra Control version. If you have already bought the regular version and you want to upgrade to Ultra Control, it will cost you an additional $39.95. In the end, I copied the files I wanted onto a couple CD's did not use PC Relocator at all. The reason I am giving this product only one star is that none of this is made clear on the box. When I bought PC Relocator years ago, there was only one version that did everything. When I purchased this version, I wasn't even aware that Alohabob was now offering two versions of PC Relocator: this stripped down version and the full version. Unlike other software products, there was no grid or other description on the back of the box showing what each version could or couldn't do. Most software with multiple versions will have a side-by-side comparison so that you can decide which one is right for you. PC Relocator does not have a side by side comp...

5 stars (Every Mac is an Island) - My gal Sara bought this because she's been a Mac person forever (I'm a former Window's person, who's made the switch) and has been used to using ResEdit to design her own icons under System 7 through 9. So now she's at it again, changing, rearranging and creating icons and I have to say, it's infectious. Who says the boys in Cupertino have to have the last say on what your desktop is going to look like. Want Microsoft Word to appear as a devil on the screen. You got it. You also get a thousand free icons with the program to start. Good ones. Macs have always been unique, now they are more so. Thumbs up from me for CandyBar Plus.

5 stars (an excellent product made even better) - I've had earlier versions of this product and eagerly await updated editions since they only get better. For those who have never used it, this is an indispensable tool to open a wide variety of files you may get through the Internet or shared in other ways for which you have no application on your computer. This includes the latest MS Word and Excel 2004 files as well as WordPerfect 12. This highly clever and sophisticated program, which installs very quickly and easily, allows you to open most Windows files, pictures, and e-mail attachments you can't otherwise. It converts both Windows and Macintosh files and allows you to share reformatted files easily on disk or through the Internet. With this program you can translate virtually any file you get, and also view files or pictures with applications you don't own. Further, you can create custom settings to automatically convert certain files. This feature I like since I can drag old databases I created in MS Works in the late 1980s onto a separate icon you can set up to automatically convert them to recent database programs. Slick! For the few files you still cannot open, the program gives tips on opening them, though with past editions I would have liked more information offered here. So far, I'm not sure what to expect on this issue with Version 15.0 since everything I've tried to open has indeed opened fine! One recent feature of MacLinkPlus allows you to carry documents on your iPod, such as directions and "to-do" lists. But not having an iPod, I can only guess is a good feature. All and all, I find this product very very useful and wonder how anyone can live without it. ...

3 stars (Slow defrag and Registry Cleanup is buggy) - Don't bother using "speed up hard drives" on the "Optimize" tab...the defrag routine will literally run forever. Also, be aware that "Clean Registry" in the "PC Maintenance Wizard" does not do anything except identify deletable items...it does not remove them. In fact, the Wizard reports "None found" even though when running, it clearly identifies deletable items. If you want System Mechanic to actually remove old registry items, you have to run the routine separately from the "Fix" tab using "Fix Registry Problems". I reported this flaw to Iolo around the first of 2005 and they acknowledged the problem but have not released any fix (how ironic!). Overall, System Mechanic is Ok but the interminable defrag and goofy registry cleaner are real downers. 2 stars (Alright Software) - The only thing that saves this product is it's registry cleaner. If you need a firewall or spyware remover don't bother with these, try Webroot's Spyswepper or Norton's or McAfee's firewall. 1 stars (A DISASTER! If you must go iolo, stick with SM 4...) - "This product is full of pitfalls." I have this on very good authority (my service technicians), although I personally haven't found but ONE, I guess, since the attempted installation corrupted my hard drive to the degree that even Safe Mode was unavailable. I really liked SM 4.0 Pro but, after this nightmare (and the subsequent lack of any help whatever from iolo), I urge you to stay away from 5.0. BTW, there are no refunds under ANY circumstances so, if your pc crashes (to the tune of $150 in my case) you'll also be out the cost of the program. ... iolo technologies :: Memory Management :: Hardware :: File Compression (Decompression) :: File Conversion (Convert) :: Diagnostics (Diagnostic) :: Maintenance :: Back up (Backup Backi :: System Mechanic 5
4 stars (Hours of FUN!) - The only problem I am finding with system mechanic 5 is that it can take many hours to do a system maintenance. I have been using the SM software since about 97 or 98... I have always loved that it really does well with keeping your system running top notch. I have NEVER had a major problem with it, but the last system maintenance I did on my 250Gb SATA (only about 20 being used) hard drive, it took 24 hours to complete... And let me warn you now! If you stop SM in the middle of a task just because you couldn't wait.... GET READY for problems... You have to let it complete. I crashed about 8 times last night because I had to stop it to use my PC... Well, now that it has run completely over night.... I can type this without any trouble ;)... I do recommend this software; they always have problems in the beginning, but thanks to updates.... They have all been fixed in the past. 5 stars (SYSMECHANIC5 PROFESSIONAL IS EXCELLENT) - My experience with Symantec Norton Works was very good until I had problems with cleaning my drives of all the duplicates and clutter left by use of the Internet. I evaluated System Mechanic5 Professional and I liked very much. Moreover,Ron Slater - Sales Representative - contacted me with several tips that put me at ease to decide on purchasing it. I am happy with the features and the user-friendly format of the software. 4 stars (Maybe they fixed the problems???) - I just installed this program a few days ago after trying the trial version first. So far, I have had no real problems. I did defrag my entire system using the optimize option. I have 4 drives partitions on two drives totaling 160GB with about 80GB of data on them (SATA 120GB drive with three partitions and a single partitioned EIDE 40GB drive). I set it to start then went to bed. Six hours later, it was complete and there were no problems (I don't know how long the process actually took, but it was done 6 hours later).
