“BEARSHARE FREE MUSIC DOWNLOADS - NOT!!!!!!Oh dear!!! I...”

Written on: 02/04/2011 by Hungandhungry (1 review written)

BEARSHARE FREE MUSIC DOWNLOADS - NOT!!!!!!Oh dear!!! I can only imagine that all the reviewers on the other sites must either be employed by or some relation of a BearShare employee. After extensive internet research, I concluded that with the demise of Napster, the "next best option" would be to download BearShare. How wrong can one man be???!!! Other reviewers assured me that there would be no issues, i.e. no compromise of download speed or conflictiions with other programmes. It transpires that this was all lies and false propaganda. Installing this programme somehow transported me back in time because the next thing I knew; my brand spanking new laptop instantly became a Sinclaire ZX81!!!! If I tried to run other programmes simultaneously, it was incredibly slow and everytime I rebooted my system, my search engine automatically switched to BearShare, even though I had specifically denied the programme permission to do so!!!! Avoid it like the plague or download it at your peril

Certainly not Bearshare. It will sneak into your computer and you won't know it. It's not a virus-style thing, but it can do a number on you...

Don't even think about it! I have good security on my laptop, but after downloading BearShare I had to wipe my drive and reload a lot!
It is a Fungus among us!
