I can understand that offering software for free may be part of a deal where our computers are the ‘guinea pigs’ for beta versions, but the non-disclosure of this fact until after we’d initiated the downloading process is not good practice.
I also agree with the points about uninstalling it, why is it so difficult? Maybe it could be claimed that this is to stop the trojans etc it is supposedly defending us from, from uninstalling Zemana? As mentioned Revo, or todays freebie – Soft Organiser, both find it and will uninstall it and other traces that Windows weaker program uninstaller won’t.
I have tried Zemana AntiLogger out, the initial scan found a few threats – all are other perfectly safe security softwares that I’ve had for years. If it is supposed to work fine with ther antivirus software I don’t know why it wants to kick software of that was made by Javacool – SpywareBlaster, SpywareGuard etc – that has been regarded as safe for many years, does Zemana not like rivals?
I’m still very much on the fence regarding this software, I’ve been aware of it for some years and repeatedly seen various concerns raised about it. A review here mentions regular updates, reviews elsewhere question why it doesn’t update very often.
It feel like it should be installed in a sandbox to prevent it doing anything untoward, yet that would defeat the point of it. In conclusion I think that the developers need to be more open about what it does, and how and why it does this.
