Photoreviewer appears to not be for Leopard. PicturePopPro is a confusing site. The author speak a lot of French and I can not tell if it is for Leopard or not. |

I uninstalled Hear, using the uninstall feature in Hear menu and now I am getting obvious distortion in my iTunes. I installed the full paid version. |

Confusing features. I can not figure out what Viewit does with image files. I "Add iPhoto Album" but were are the files from iPhoto? Where does Viewit store its image files? Is it making duplicates of my iPhoto files? If so, were is it putting them? The logical place to look is the ViewIt folder in Pictures folder, yet no files are there. So far Viewit is not meeting my need of a simple image viewer. |

PE 4 DID NOT work well with iPhoto, contrary to so-called expert reviews and Adobe advertising, & I see no reason why PE 6 would be any better. PE has always been bloated and not user-friendly. |

$50 regular price? $40 for the sale price? LOL. I read somewhere that the company makes the point that $50 is for using it on two computers. OK then charge $25 for use on one computer, then your closer to a realistic price. If you want a monitor that monitors RAM, CPU, and more, then MenuMeters is free and good. CheckUp does more, but not $50 or $40 more. |

Yes, I tried it some time ago. Did not like it. As I recall, the screen is full of data which spoils viewing photos. Rather, it should have a toolbar and/or separate panels not part of the image itself. |

What I want is a good image viewer. I am still looking. Been looking for years and have not found one. |

Been using this new beta since released yesterday on iMac Intel and Powerbook G4 running Leopard. No problems at all. Best window manager on OS X. Better than Spaces too. |

Yep, that was it, Mac OS Purge. I used it in OS 9 and 8. Actually, I find that iFreeMem is far more effective in OS X than Mac OS Purge was in the Classic OS days. |

Wow. My initial reaction on trying it once is that this is very useful. There was a similar program available in the classic OS days, but can not remember its name. This is faster and more practical than rebooting. Besides, excessive rebooting just puts that extra wear and tear on the hardware. I will continue to use it during its 2 week trial period, and if it continues to work well, I am buying it. |

User-friendly, fast, & free. Also, unlike the big boys, it does not install any fonts. I can not stand apps that force you to install fonts. Basic word processor for us non-professionals who do not need to do everything. A few more basic features would be nice, but I hope it does not get bloated up as it develops. Most of us regular folk just want a word processor, so in a sense we are looking for Word Light, not Office Light. |

Expensive. Unstable. Confusing. Last good version of Word was Word 98. Installs loads of unneeded fonts. I can't even register this with Microsoft site, they won't recognize their own Product ID code. $150 down the drain. |

WindowShade is not yet Leopard compatible. That means do not use it till it is. |

This version of LS is bloated up with eye candy and unnecessary menu clutter. It is also more resource/memory hungry than the Preference Pane version. System-wide monitors and security programs belong in System Preferences. |

How strange, I corresponded back in May of 2007 with you on another matter with MailSteward. At that same time I recall not being able to display any HTML at all. All I saw was plain text and lots of those weird HTML symbols. May of 2007 wasn't a year ago. Yet you say MailSteward can display HTML. Has something happened to MailSteward between May of 2007 and now to enable display of HTML? |

Version 1.0 costs $40. Way too expensive for us Quicken users to spend to switch. Provide discount for those of us using other financial software and we may switch. I recommend no more than $20 as an upgrade price. |

I do not use it anymore, I found it much too confusing and it took forever to figure out how to do basic stuff. I put this program in the same class as photoshop, it could do a lot, the problem is figuring out how to do it. btw, it had a tendency to take over graphics files. Icons on various files I never used with Graphic Converter would end up with GC icons. |

I skimmed through Get Started guide for Money. I did not notice anything about it being able to import data from other programs, such as Quicken. I just sent them an email about it. I tried iBank about 1 year ago and found it buggy. The main problem I have with Quicken is using it in conjunction with my Bank checking account, by downloading info from online bank. So I am currently using Quicken by entering all data manually like you would with paper checkbook. |

Finally looks like an OS X program. Clean, easy to use interface. The red colored numerical digits is very good, it is not hard to mistake some letters as numbers, this feature prevents that from happening. Even with all the automatic password features in web browsers etc. you would think this kind of thing is not useful, but you be surprised how often the password fields get screwed up on websites. If you haven't visited a site in a really long time you may find you have to re-enter the user and password, and this program makes it easy to find it. You might be able to find info in Keychain, but Password Wallet is easier to use. Making new passwords is also easier. Even if your happy with the way Keychain works, having this as backup is useful. |

Very good program. I do not use all the features and there are too many to mention. There is still a speed issues with some features, but it is not serious. Ease of renaming files and folders, the Drop Stack and the Global menu were I can access my Favorites at all times are three things I use a lot. However, I think Path Finder is for intermediate and advanced users. I recommend that newbies to Mac spend their time learning the regular Apple Finder. When the time comes you are looking for more features and control, then try Path Finder. |

Program auther seem to discourage use of Quarantine. I know ClamXav updates if you launch the app. Problem is that scheduling never worked for me for either scans or virus definitions. |

Good and free with one big issue. Doesn't seem to have a way to deal with a virus, if it finds one. In scanning Mail it finds PC viruses, but, it does not really help to locate the specific file. It tells me if there is a virus in my Junk Mail folder but I could never figure out how to isolate the specific email. A lesser issue is that I could never get the scheduling feature to work for virus definitions. Even when the schedule seems to stick, it never ran. I had to to manually launch application to update it. Also, there have been a few OS X system updates since this Clamxav version was released. I am suspicious that it is not keeping up. |

What do you think about the $30 per year virus definition fee? |

There was a serious problem with earlier versions updating server. I have had no problem with WB 2006. Nice interface. Easy to use. Safer for kids doing homework than allowing them total access to internet. Adults doing research for whatever purpose will also enjoy using it. Reasonably priced with upgrade price for owners of previous versions. |
