Shredder Review**YOU CAN'T TRANSFER LICENCE** - Version: 20050612, 7/15/2006 03:18AM PST

This is a simple piece of SW, that does what it says on the can.

BUT!! When you buy it, you are only purchasing it for use on ONE machine - with a specific ethernet address.

If you need a new logic board, or you buy a new Mac, you CANNOT TRANSFER THE LICENSE. You need to pay another $10.

The author makes this very clear, but be warned.

Disk Utility now allows you to shred empty space - so I would stick with that.

Shredder ReviewFollowup to my previous Shredder review - Version: 20050612, 6/16/2006 09:09AM PST

I still have not received a reply from the author of this application and the download still does not work! I wish it were possible to rate this item with *negative* stars. This is one time I'm sorry I supported someone's shareware!

Shredder ReviewDo not download this version! - Version: 20050612, 6/14/2006 07:20AM PST

I've been using Shredder successfully for several years. Yesterday I downloaded (multiple times) the latest version of Shredder and stupidly trashed my old version. When I went to use or open this version of Shredder I received the message "You cannot open the application "Shredder" because it may be damaged or incomplete." Mr. DeKorte has not responded to my email requesting help. So, my advice is to keep your prior version if it's working. If you want to try the newer version, for goodness sake do not toss the prior version!

BTW: I've downloaded and expanded other software yesterday so I doubt if my OS or Stuffit is at fault.
