Bundled with adware Hash (authentification) codes for VLC don't match up with the real site; downloaded from this site out of curiosity and had the headache of removing all the other annoying programs that came with it.

Free applications in one place Downloadster is a one stop shop for your basic PC needs. The interface is bright and well designed, and the software provided is all free and from reputable companies (7zip, Openoffice, VLC, etc). The site is a little hard to navigate, just in that it defaulted to VLC media player, and you don’t see the other software options unless you page all the way down to the bottom, and then they are just single text entries, rather than a button, so some users might miss them. Other than that, Downloadster has a great selection of free software. The software in question also covers all of the standard needs that a Windows user might have. These apps also tend to be the recognized standards for whatever particular use they are intended for. It is rather nice to have all of these applications in a single location, free of viruses, and not have to search all over the web.

Full of additional PUP Virus software Install VLC software through Downloadster and you also end up with a load of other crap that hijacks your browser forcing you to use yahoo search on new tabs on all browsers. Installing a horrible toolbar on IE and disables IE Options from being able to remove it. I was very careful to untick all boxes that could lead to extra bits being installed but the install process didn't tell me about this crap. Really annoyed! I finally managed to get rid of it but it wasn't obvious. If you're wondering how, press the Windows key and "E" together and then select Uninstall or Change a Program. Near the bottom of the list you should find somehting called "Linkrub" or something like it. You have to tell it to remove this ...crap! several times before it actually goes. Probably a good idea to run an Adware removal tool afterwards too. Best advice is stay well clear of this site if you want to keep control of your own machine. I don't care about letting Downloadster know about my review either Hate hackers like these

Best sofware for video. Looking and scanning through this site, I find this software very helpful especially to those video enthusiasts or those who find recreations in watching videos. This software is worth buying for because it is all-in-one. Anyone can enjoy not only videos, but as wel as audio files. Even movies from DVDs or even from you Flash can be played in this software. It plays most of the media codecs thus, it is so powerful. What's even more amazing is that is is FREE! Its adjustability is also a good thing for me since through it, there'll be no hard time in adjusting it whichever way you want it. For me, this is one of the best downloads because it has a lot more to offer. One can easily see how many formats it can support.

Downloadster.org even worked with my smart phone yes! Downloadster.org immediately caught my eye seeing as their homepage featured software programs and products that I use very frequently. VLC player is a great media player for video or audio. Personally I downloaded it to use it in assisting me with my transcriptions as its one of the few who let you control the speed of what you are hearing just by pressing the plus and minus keys. What was really useful for me was being able to install the VLC media player on my phone because I was traveling and missing a lot of my favorite TV shows and my great smart phone just wouldn’t play them, until I installed VLC player and I haven’t had any problems since. The other thing I find useful from downloadster.org was just an optional toolbar, which I usually find to be a really annoying add on, but this one is practical and neat in its appearance. This site was safe for downloading something I really needed but didn’t want to have to shell out money for so THANK YOU for this free download of my most reliable media player!
