Review Time
Avoid this site. I downloaded a free software through Softonic; although I unchecked the installation of bloatware, scareware and adware, I was surprised that, along with the downloaded software, 12 more registry cleaners, codecs, browser search bars and other crap were installed.
Removing this bloatware, scareware and adware was a frustrating process that took at least 2 hours to remove all the installed crap!
Go directly to the developer's website - do not use Softonic!
Softonic is no longer a safe website, Softonic offers a Fisher EXE for download. Which has a lot of adware and malicious programs, viruses, etc. included. I downloaded a Fisher from them, and although I checked not to install viruses, it installed 37 different programs in the background, games, browsers, fake registry cleaners, codecs, video players, but also radmin, which allows total access to the pc.
Avoid this site!
