I hate a program that just inserts itself into your registry very anonymously. This creates no program folder, no shortcut, no tracks whatsoever.
1) Putting a zip file within the SOS installer is not a good idea as it screws things up when using a software installer! (in my case, Soft Organizer)
2) Without a shortcut there is no way to launch it, Thus, no informational GUI to see either, just the list of dimming choices from right clicking on the system tray icon it creates. On first open, it said I was set at “80% Custom”. Custom???!! Custom for who? Who set that? Certainly not me! When I clicked on that entry, it just disappeared, did not give me a custom option to change it and now is at “75% Medium” and “Custom” has disappeared.
3) Okay, now I clicked “Exit” and it is off. No longer in system tray. How do I turn it on without a shortcut or program folder to find it? Another restart, honestly?!
3) When I hover over the system tray icon, it states my location. Why in the world would such a program need my location?
4) There is no way to uninstall it! Huh, WTF! Without a program folder or any tracks, there is not a way to remove it other than a system restore? Again, WTF!
5) FYI, I use AnVir Task Manager which shows all programs on the system and information such as file location, company info, etc. All the info for this program is blank! Everything about this program seems to purposely be anonymous. The company’s own website shows no location, no contact info other than an email.
I like to control and know what goes in on in my computer! SOS, I love you but this program is a big mistake, IMO!
