I didn't know about Shadow Copy or GetDataBack. Thanks.

Shadow Copy is apparently only in Win7 "Business" and "Ultimate" versions though. Bother. Mine is Home Premium.

GetDataBack looks very good. I see there are 2 separate versions - NTFS and FAT.

If you have already downloaded Help Explorer Viewer, I would be grateful if you could make it accessible (or email it) to me please. I can't find that file except it's on these sites that insist on forcing their spamming download proggy on you.

Download from http://web.archive.o...are.com/download.php

Has anyone here tried it yet?

Download will be available next week.

You need to re-fuel...

Just check this out:

FreeOpener 1.0.1.0
http://www.freeopener.com/

Free File Opener 2011
http://www.freefileopener.com/

Free File Viewer 2011
http://www.freefileviewer.com/

Ultimate File Viewer
http://www.ultimatefileviewer.com/

The same software under different theme and using different names. After doing some research I found that the company behind all this poorly coded stuff is Bitberry Software ApS owner of Trusted Software a website that rips-off Open Source software like GIMP, VideoLan than bundle it with InstallIQ.

The developers consented because they thought they were getting paid for it:

Wrong. Reread the article.

Warning, this is a thread hijack but I just could not resist  :D

@musetips

What's the deal with the incremental updates of your Text Filter application? The only things that changed every 3-4 days since November last year are the version number and date. Also, you seem to hide the portable version...  hope it has got nothing to do with the crap that is included in the installer.

A little update- I was installing Applian FLV player on my new computer.  It uses Open Candy.  Or at least I *think* it does.  Looking in the EULA, it has something about OpenCandy.  But I wasn't presented with any option other than installing their own premium version... so I'm not sure *what* that was about...

Do you have the Freecorder toolbar?

I don't even know what that is.  I don't have any toolbars in my browsers, though.  And nothing was installed other than the FLV player.
Applian Flv Player is bundled with FreeCorder Toolbar. No OC recommendations, just the EULA though.

Nitpicking? No, absolutely not. The obsession with spyware terminology, however, is a deviation from the real issue here. Fact is that OC is an Ad serving platform that also tracks your usage of software, monitors your actions and report this information back home. Arguing that others (Google, Adobe, Java, ....) do similar stuff does not (and should not) approve OC. Targeting the 'happy click next' ignorant crowd is not okay. What it actually does is setting a precedence for the rest of us who do think before clicking yes, read the EULA, etc. Next thing you hear, but everyone is using google, everyone is on FB... every installer is powered by OC (well, they wish).... got it?

The comment about Sweet IM illustrates another issue I have with OC, developers have no control about what OC promotes and they do not care about the end user and would recommend anything that pays well. User satisfaction my arxx ... >:(

@Renegade

No, I did not try Sweet IM (and have no intention/need to do that). I was just wondering how you can recommend Sweet IM to others without having tried it yourself first?

Thank you so much everyone.

Extremely happy me  :)

So what you're saying is we need a new term to define things like OC?

Here are a few... Ad Conduit, Usage Information Sniffer/Transferer, Privacy Intrusion Mechanism. That's what OC does. How it does what it does is not an issue (at least for me it's not).

Just go through the advertisers list... Crawler Toolbar, My Shopping Genie, PriceGong, SweetIM.....sigh

Thanks mouser.

The LicenseFile.txt specifically talks about 'trial period' and the Personal Printer Suite's "About" window shows number of days left before renewal. Hence the confusion.

So why most developers that partner with OC hid that fact?
