ffeedback on Earth Station 5

peatrap	Date: January 7, 2004 @ 7:59 PM the good and bads about ES5
Thaspian	Date: March 10, 2004 @ 3:27 PM it's spyware. :/
mtekk	Date: March 10, 2004 @ 8:49 PM I don't trust anything that comes from the middle east, expecially software
sonicstate	Date: March 10, 2004 @ 10:37 PM I tried it one time, about a year ago. The program at that time wasn't loaded with spyware (as it may be now) but I'll tell you this... it SUCKED. I tried it on a system that was going to be reformatted, kept crashing. When it would run, I couldn't find a damn thing. In the end, tho, I agree with mtekk.
Cryxan	Date: March 11, 2004 @ 4:06 AM It has code in it that would allow someone to go in and delete your shared files. It is intentional. I don't have an article to link to, but the info is out there, and to the best of my knowledge, it's true.
pog	Date: March 11, 2004 @ 5:08 AM I installed it once when it came out.... soon afterwards, I think I formatted for one reason or another (about 4 os's ago). It was really ordinary. Pretty much the same as sonicstate said, as I recall. Im glad I never persued it... it's a trap, or a joke, or a statistician.
peatrap	Date: March 11, 2004 @ 5:01 PM I have used es5 for six months, the code everone seems to be afraid of was for automatic updates, its been removed. the selection is not as great as kazza or others but this comes with the security system they use. here is something i found just by accident. Go to www.grc.com and test your system with their tools. then download es5, run the same test again and look at port 135.
