It's been reported elsewhere that this contains adware.
Like that's a surprise

So where did you find the reviews of it? Having only recently been
released, your sources must be hot off the marque. Do tell.

But as you say it isn't suprising that it contains adware or what pases
for it (if indeed it does) the writer want's feed back. It that too uch
to ask form a freebie?

What you do is you get a copy now and wait until there have been enough
reviews for you to find out if it is dangerous and to see what AdAware
and SpyBot release to combat it.

Then get updates of AdAware and Spybot and use them to contain the urge
your new programme has to hurl your innermost thoughts out into the
void.

Yes.
If it does contain adware then it is not "freeware" as the post claimed
it to be.

What is the definition of freeware?

If you don't have to pay any money for it it is free. But it may or may
not contain adware. Whether it does or not might put it into another
category without removing the freeware title.

Stuff like Google or Firefox are considered freeware. That doesn't mean
it doesn't contain adverts.

The link worked OK for me but the details of the program only seem to
say it can copy files from a bad disk. It doesn't say anything about
correcting the errors.

Why should a piece of software be able to correct errors that the drive
firmware cannot correct? The error correction mechanism uses well
understood algorithms so I don't see what can be done differently.

Advertising can be ignored. Having unknown software installed and run
on your computer is a price, even if it doesn't immediately cost you any
money. It won't have been put there for your benefit. 'Freeware' is free
(as in money) software which is exactly what it claims to be and
therefore has no hidden (non-monetary) price.

'Freeware' coming from a Windows environment is always suspect,
especially if it involves entertainment. 'Freeware' ported to Windows
from the *nix environment is more likely to be genuine, particularly if
the application is not an entertainment one.

Especially suspect are 'free' programs which you know should involve
royalty payments e.g. MP3 encoding.
