X11 2.4.0 (Mac OS X)

This app now phones home  

This application now phones home each time you start it. And I could not find an option to turn automatic updates off. I really dislike applications that do this. Fortunately I have little snitch installed. [alert admin]

Vuze 4.2.0.4 (Mac OS X)

went back to 4.2.0.2  

I installed 4.2.0.4 and noticed that it now takes forever to scrape the tracker and connect to peers. Torrents stay 'gray' for a minute prior to doing anything. I reverted back to 4.2.0.2 and this problem is not there. I would not recommend this version. [alert admin]

jalada's Malliouhana 1.0.2 (Mac OS X)

why use a .pkg installer?  

I think it is really unnecessary to use package installer for a single app. I dont like them as you dont get to see what components it installs. So opened the package with pacifist and find in amongst misc data is the single standalone app. which simply extracts without an admin password. Why not just bundle the app itself inside a disk image. It is a good game however. [alert admin]

MKVToolNix 2.7 (Mac OS X)

does not work, sigh,   

This application has failed work again. It crashes and the console reports that a required library is missing. It comes with no instructions explaining what extra libraries are required. The developer has again not tested this application prior to releasing it. Therefore I would not trust this software. [alert admin]

MKVToolNix 2.6 (Mac OS X)

still not fixed  

considering there were missing libraries with the previous version you would have expected this to have been fixed with this version. org.matroska.mkvmerge[9754] dyld: Library not loaded: /opt/local/lib/libpng12.0.dylib poorly compiled application and obviously not fully tested piror to release.

MacPinball 5.2 (Mac OS X)

not so good  

i have played pintables for 20 yrs. I have also played many video versions of pinball. within 10 mins of playing this game i can say it does not respond like real pinball. the flippers do not come close to pinball. I found the flippers very unresponsive and give this game 2/10. [alert admin]

Snooker 8.0 (Mac OS X)

This is not snooker by any means  

This game is not Snooker. it is pool but using the coloured balls found on a snooker table. Snooker is played on a much bigger table with smaller balls. It requires much more skill to play than american 8 ball pool. This is why many snooker champions also do very well in world pool championships. You rarely see (if ever) a pool champ win a snooker championship. The potting sequence is red, then colour (the red stays down and the colour is respotted) once all the reds are potted then the colours are potted in the order yellow, green, brown, blue, pink and finally black. The rules of snooker are here http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/other_sports/snooker/rules/default.stm [alert admin]

Little Snitch 2.0 (Mac OS X)

excellent app a must have.  

I have used Little Snitch for a while now and have used version 2 since the public beta and seen it go from strength to strength. My only wish is that apple see the standard of this application and make leopard\s built in firewall as good as this for incoming connections. [alert admin]

Little Snitch 2.0 beta 7 (Mac OS X)

fantastic user support  

In my previous feedback I stated that although a beta this upgrade was a bargain and well worth paying for. After a week or more of using the product I noticed the application going a bit rogue especially when a lot of simultaneous connections were going on such as torrent downloads. I emailed obdev only maybe 2 weeks ago and they have released this update that has addressed that issue. Obdev you are a fantastic company and I only wish other software companies addressed issue so quickly. [alert admin]

BRING BACK 10.4 Support!  

Previous versions of transmission work in 10.4. Your argument is like saying to Apple please support my G4 when they release an intel only OS. Software moves on hardware stays behind.

They are liars  

Perhaps the term 'Liar' is a bit harsh, It was a keen jerk reaction to a company that claimed there was no malware or spyware in their product. The fact that a compay claims this makes me instantly suspicious. Then i found the simbl plug phoning home and that made me angry. You are not alone the simbl package included with other apps such as pith helmet also phones home.
