Strengths: It is really good ar **** up your browser
Weaknesses: Run do not walk away from this monster it will work its way into your browser and fight with your default browser for supremecy. Your browser will run like dialup untill you aninstall (and it does not like that it will fight you!)untill you have no choice but to restore factory settings and you do not want to go there. Worst thing i ever did on my computer was to install that peice of crap!!!
Overall Evaluation: DO NOT DO IT!!!!

Strengths: Fast and Simple and other P2P programs can be found by using it.
Weaknesses: No anonymous searching, easily tracked, random pop ups, installer includes spyware, well-known for having viruses. All in all not worth the time to even read this review
Overall Evaluation: You can simply pass right over this. There are much better P2P programs that are simply ALOT better than this program can even conceive.

Strengths: The free version of Bearshare is ok. I download the occasional movie with it. I unfortunatly just signed up and paid $20 to update to Bearflix pro. Big Mistake
Weaknesses: Everything, at least for me. And, I have tried to write to the company for help, and its been over a year and I haven't received a reply yet.
Overall Evaluation: I am not a big computer wiz. I would rate myself as your average downloader. The free version of Bearflix is much better than the Pro version. With pro, every movie I search for, I only end up getting porn results. DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY! Hopefully I can get mine back!

Strengths: None. This is the first time in almost 20 years of listening to PC Worlds recommendations that they have steered me wrong. Stay away from this product.
Weaknesses: Totally messed my computer up. Had to reinstall Real Player and several IM programs including Yahoo. Days later I am still finding programs that Bear Share messed up and I am having to reinstall. Never did find the main stream songs I was looking for, and the fact I couldn't download to my computer really sucked. I am not familiar with these programs I will admit, but if they are all this bad it's a wonder that anybody uses them at all.
Overall Evaluation: Really, really sucks. Run, do not walk away from this program. Be afraid, be very, very afraid. This program wants to eat your computer for breakfast, lunch, and dinner.
