a little software review of some (2) programs i’ve tried recently or not so recently.
i downloaded the newest version of AIM (AOL Instant Messenger). the review? it’s horrid. it still looks like it was put together in a dungeon in the 1500’s. that’s all i needed to see. i’m sticking with gaim… not that i talk to anyone on aim – i just sign in once in a while.
and, sunbelt kerio personal firewall. what a name. i don’t like it much, but i’m using it for now. there’s a lot of reasons to not like it. #1 when you install it, it asks if you want to run simple or advanced mode. it says you can change it later. i haven’t seen an option to change it, and i’ve looked. another thing is gateway mode doesn’t work. booo. another thing is there are options that are nice, but there seems to be no way to turn them off if you want/don’t want them. so, it acts complicated, but i don’t like it.
now you know. until the next firewall program comes along… i’ll keep using kerio, i guess.
