Mighty Mouse	Jun 3 2009	COUNTPOLLEN This beta supposedly installs application enhancer is it is not yet installed on your system. It doesn't do that, which caused my system to hang after login. Luckily I have a firewire harddisk with a leopard install to boot from. To remove the problem causer remove the mighty mouse preference pane and the mighty mouse file in ~/Library/Application enhancers. (Version 2.0b1)		0

Web iPhoto Access	May 18 2009	COUNTPOLLEN After installation, which appeared to be alright, my macbook pro (early 2008) wouldn't reboot normally. The installed screwed up my system. After checking the boot camp partition and repairing permissions for OS X (using install DVD) I could finally boot normally. I am really happy that I have my files back and would like to request a method for the restoration of Apache setting before the installer destroyed it. I can't recommend the application to anyone right now. Use Flickr, BubelShare or Picasa and save yourself the misery. (Version 2.4)		+1

ANONYMOUS Hi,

changes done in Apache settings definitely can't prevent your Mac from booting. I would even say, although I can't check it, that any change in Apache settings won't prevent your Mac from booting.

You may have had an other issue related to system permissions.

Bubbles X	Mar 17 2009	COUNTPOLLEN Why pay for a bad ripoff of a MS Windows Vista screensaver. I'd rather compile the good old linux screensavers for mac. It's a bad thing to steal and I really don't think that anybody is waiting to see these... Cheerio! Good luck coming up with something original. (Version 1.2)		0

Rohos Logon Key	Nov 5 2008	COUNTPOLLEN This software is unsafe (could lose usb stick) and thus not recommendable. Further, I think that it is also quite unnecessary. Another minus is that you lose a precious usb port for the key. Several other negative posts on forums can be found by a simple web search. Fingerprint security built in to MacBook (Pro)'s would be nicer. (Version 1.4)		-3

MISTERLISTER You may find it unnecessary or unsafe, but many other people feel there is a need for such a thing, in fact, it's not the only product of its type.

ROHOZ Version 1.4.3 doesnt require to keep USB stick in USB port always (due to 'nothing' removal action). With this option you need to plug usb key only to login/unlock. Also if you lost USB key you can still login with a password or a second USB key.

To make Rohos more safer - use option 'Activate password protected screensaver upon usb stick removal'.

FMAXWELL If you think that USB ports are "precious," you need a cheaper hobby or more income. The computer stores practically give away USB hubs. Every wired Apple keyboard has at least one.

If you are so concerned about losing the key (but not forgetting a password, apparently), then make a duplicate USB key. It's not like USB thumb drives are expensive. Small ones can be had for just a few dollars (I picked up some 256K drives for $3.99, threw away the drives, and kept the lanyards, which is all I bought them for).
