DESimple but effective is a nice software download website that offers VLC Media Player for free and it’s easy to use and packed with some useful software details.The compact layout of the website makes it simple to navigate and to download the software. However, because of the nature of the content, it doesn't quite compare with the top sites in this category. There's also an installation manager that manages the entire installation process of your software from start to finish and additional toolbars that you may install during a download process. Before downloading VLC Media Player , a widely spread software program, you can read some details about it, like features and support formats, and you are presented with a screenshot of the program interface. The only downside is lack of information about the VLC Media Player .

GBFree 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.

GBGet downloading! Downloaster.org is a software downloading site which offers quite a few programs that are well known. The site is safe and secure and you don't have to worry about virus or Trojan horse which usually show up when downloading software from host sites. The layout for the site is simple with different color themes for each download page.Navigation can be improved and quite easily, Instead of have the links to download pages at the bottom of the website, they should be at the top and easy to see. Each download page has a big yellow download button so you wont be confused as to where you can download the software. The download pages for each software includes information and features for you to get a clear overview on the program your downloading. The download process itself is easy and simple and only takes a few minutes depending on your internet. Setup is simple and you can choose where you want your program to show up at on your computer/laptop.

GBFull 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
