worthless

Feedback Type:  Review

Product Platform: MacOSX

Used Product For: Less than a month

Recommend Product: NO

so you download the program
you get a window that says you apparently access the program with option C

and that is the last that you see of it
nothing happens - it does not respond - I cannot find it anywhere- I cannot even throw the app away since mac says it is open- but I cannot quit it since it does not show up in the "force quit applications list"

the author claims it is unobtrusive- so unobtrusive that you cannot use it or delete it
the VT page does not list which OS it works with

the authors web site name says it all "makesnosenseatall"

the author gives no info on how to uninstall

this thing seems very dangerous

well i just found that the hot key is cmd option c not what the welcome window says
the welcome window only appears once after that you are on your own- what arrogance

but i still cannot find anyway to throw it out spotlight cannot find where it hid its files

so I am stuck with this disk image on my desktop that I cannot delete

worthless - Gordon Alley

If you can't delete the disk image from your desktop, it sounds like you launched the program from the disk image, instead of copying it to your Applications folder and launching it from THERE.

Some people are just unlucky and computers know who amongst us they are.
In this case, and many others I imagine, that is you.

As the phrase goes: "tough luck".
