I bought this software a couple of years ago (3.2) and have been mostly unhappy with it. I did demo it and opened a few files, so I thought it would work for me, and I bought it. Since that time, I have repeatedly wished I had my 20 bucks back. I should have tested it more thoroughly. It says "Open Word, Excel, PowerPoint, AppleWorks and ClarisWorks Documents on Your Mac ... like the original." But, it doesn't open them like the original. My experience has been that icWord RARELY opens/displays photographic images OR clip art images. It only displays the text from these documents, and I can do that much with Appleworks for free. For that matter, I can click on the document in Gmail and view it in HTML format.

Word users love to embed their photos and icWord hardly ever displays them. I get a little image telling me it can't display it -- so helpful. I have contacted Panergy and this was their response: "I have checked this and you are right icWord is not showing the picture. We will try to improve the product in a next release so that it support this type of pictures."

This has been going on since 3.2. At $20 per update, it seems like this should have been fixed by now. I'm not paying for it anymore. I think I will use their demo for 30 days at a time until they get their act together. Better yet, maybe someone else will come up with a Mac Word viewer that really works! Keeping my fingers crossed.
