Free Rising Looked good but messed up both of my windows xp computers. One Laptop and one Desktop. After a few days of automatic updates software programs Opera,DvDFlick and Free Easy Cut. dvdflick started with popups saying the freeware had no license. Opera's popups said another instance was running when it wasn,t.
free easy cuts popup said could not enter video and to use mpeg2 format. the video was mpeg2. Not much respect in this software.
