GOM Player is a popular video player that plays pretty much any video format you can think of.
Like UMPlayer GOM Player is one of those apps that goes unnoticed but proves to be excellent when you take the time to give it a try. It's a compact, easy-to-use video player lets you enjoy video files and movies in a wide variety of formats. What's more, you won't have problems with codecs because GOM Player already includes them – and if not, it automatically searches for the appropriate codec online.
GOM Player shows off a sleek interface with support for skins and has other powerful features: support for subtitles, favorites manager, support for playlists, use mouse and keyboard shortcuts for many functions and more. What GOM Player misses, for example, is the ability to take screenshots or even more important, to resume playback right where you left it (something I personally use a lot).
GOM Player offers to install the Google Toolbar during its installation process but you may as well decline the offer. As for the rest, it's a great video player that's well worth a try… even if you already have a favorite player.
GOM Player is a visually appealing video player with very interesting features and which, above all, solves any problem you may have with codecs.

Walletx is a security tool that lets you store information and passwords from your user accounts, bank accounts, credit cards, and other important account information that you want to keep safe.
With Walletx, you can keep this data safe and have it right at hand: it's compatible with Windows, OS X and iOS, Android, Windows Phone and Symbian mobile platforms.
Nowadays, it's commonplace to have loads of user accounts because virtually any website or online service requests that you register to use all of its features. If you want to be really secure online, you should have different passwords for each account, but it's really easy to lose track of which password goes with which account.
Walletx is a solution to this problem: it allows you to securely store your account information and passwords, as well as things like purchase data, credit cards numbers or bank account info. All of this information will be in a safe place but instantly accessible to you.
Even further, Walletx can synchronize your data online via Dropbox, allowing you to save your passwords using the Cloud storage service so that you can access your data as synchronized from different devices and platforms.
Using Walletx is simple: each new entry in the application receives a card. Walletx offers a large selection of possible cards, such as hotel reservations, ISPs, social security numbers, vehicle information, as well as key services such as Google, Twitter, Facebook, Paypal, LinkedIn, eBay or Foursquare account info.
All you have to do is select the type of card you need and complete the corresponding form, adapted to each service with a personalized space for notes. You also have the option to change the icon for each card to differentiate them from one another.
Although Walletx appears very simple, its functionality is flawless. In no time at all, you can add information for all of your accounts, creating cards one by one. In addition, support for Dropbox allows the data to be copied to your Dropbox account so that you can access your information wherever you are.
Although it is simple to use, the card system can actually slow the process of filing your data because its sometimes tricky to find the type of card that best fits the information you want to enter.
If you have lots of passwords to remember, Walletx lets you forget them! Walletx stores all your passwords in a secure database with just one master password, keeping access to all the services you need safe at hand.

Keepvid allows you to search and download songs from video streaming sites.
Like most programs, you can search Keepvid by artist or song title. After a few minutes, Keepvid indexes a database of over 15 million downloadable videos for results.
You can download the chosen song or video by dragging and dropping the file into the download section. Alternatively, right-clicking the indexed track will show you several options:
Streaming songs is free, but there are limitations to downloading and conversion which aren't fully obvious within the program itself. For more details on the limitations, you have to go to the manufacturer's website.
Initially, the Keepvid interface may seem chaotic, but after playing around with it for a few minutes, it's easy to become familiar with the controls, which are all located on the same screen.
Managing categories of tracks (Fast download, Transfer to iTunes, etc.) is only accessible via right mouse click and the interface could be improved with an options menu for the program.
What is convenient is the ability to contact customer service for real-time support using the integrated chat function.
Keepvid indexes search results quickly and the music was downloaded more quickly than we expected. On the other hand, we did have issues downloading videos in some cases.
The application uses 3 different processes and as a result uses moderate resource consumption.
During installation, you will be offered the option to install a toolbar and other software. You can simply refuse by clicking 'Skip'.
Keepvid is a good program to download songs and music videos, but the download and conversion limitations aren't recognizable from the app's interface.
Keepvid supports multiple download types and has an integrated live chat for customer service, but it generally doesn't include any novel features that make it stand out from other similar free video download programs like Songr.

TuneUp is a tool that helps organize several aspects of iTunes for you.
If your iTunes library is a mess, full of badly labeled tracks, TuneUp is a great way to get your library organized again. Rewriting tags yourself can take forever, so let TuneUp do it for you instead.
TuneUp sits next to your iTunes window, and has four functions. First is 'Clean', which searches for possible fits to your mislabeled tracks, and then automatically changes the file's tag. You can also search for cover art in the same way. Drag any album missing artwork into the TuneUp box, and it will find suitable matches, then update your files. If you like the 'cover flow' feature on iTunes, this is a great way to make it look even better.
The DeDuper feature searches out duplicate songs in your collection, which you can then remove. Finally there is the Tuniverse. TuneUp's Tuniverse allows you to share what you're playing on Facebook, tweet the song on Twitter, and see related YouTube videos and biographies from Freebase. There are even concert and event notifications via the StubHub service.
TuneUp allows you to clean 500 songs and find 50 album covers, so once you've used them up you'll have to subscribe to do more. The unlimited 'Now Playing' and 'Concerts' functions might be useful to you, and the YouTube videos are definitely a nice touch.
TuneUp is a nice idea. iTunes libraries can get really untidy, and it's good to have an automated cleaning system. The app sits neatly next to iTunes, and doesn't use significant system resources.
If you have lots of files in your iTunes library that need organizing, TuneUp is a great organizational option.

BS.Player is the perfect video player for those moments when you prefer watching movies and TV series on the computer rather than doing it on the couch.
BS.Player is a great media player that features anything you need to watch movies or any other kind of video on your PC. BS.Player supports all popular video formats (and audio as well, in case you were wondering) and though its basic interface is not really the nicest one I've seen, you can easily customize it with skins. Also, if you're missing any video or audio codecs, BS.Player will download them right away during installation.
BS.Player supports video subtitles, takes screenshots of movie currently playing, lets you create bookmarks and chapters to move along videos more easily and has also support for plug-ins, making it very similar to apps like UMPlayer.
I especially liked the way you can control playback, either by using keyboard shortcuts or simply your mouse: one click to stop the video, two clicks to go full screen, mouse wheel to raise or lower the volume... It's really comfortable.
BS.Player is reliable and full of features. The only drawback if any, is the fact that the program doesn't include any documentation except for a FAQ section that you need to open in your browser. Not that you can't use BS.Player without help, but it's always nice to have some documentation to rely on in case you get stuck.
BS.Player lets you enjoy your favorite movies on the PC with a wide range of features: subtitles, screenshots, bookmarks and more.

CyberLink PowerDirector is a complete video editor with which you can create colorful video presentations, mixing all sorts of multimedia elements: videos, images, transition effects, clipart, text layers and, of course, a custom background soundtrack.
The interface in CyberLink PowerDirector is divided into four main tabs (Capture, Edit, Produce and Create Disc), all of them pretty self-explanatory. As for the Edit part in CyberLink PowerDirector – the most complex one – it features the standard design in video editing tools, with a library window to browse your media collection, a timeline to drag and drop elements and a preview window to check what your creation looks like when you put all the elements together.
CyberLink PowerDirector includes all the necessary tools for the whole creative process, from assisting you in with the very first step (capturing video from several different sources) to adding the final touches to your creation, such as a totally customizable DVD-style menu.
When you're done, CyberLink PowerDirector lets you save your video on your hard drive in different formats, publish it to YouTube straight away, share it on Facebook or output it to a camcorder.
Most recently, CyberLink PowerDirector has been updated to include ways to share your creations via DirectorZone and 3D editing tools to create stunning 3D movies.
With CyberLink PowerDirector you can easily create multimedia presentations with video, photos and music.

RealPlayer is one of those media players that seems to have been around since the very beginnings of the web.
These days, it's an app that attempts to be all things to all people - play DVDs, organize music, catalog photos, convert video, interact with social networking sites, browse internet multimedia....there's no end to what RealPlayer offers to its users. Even so, it's not an out-and-out success...
For a start, installation of RealPlayer is annoying - it takes a while, requires lots of "nexts" and tries to install and enable several features that users don't really need. Finally, when it starts, you're offered a chance to upgrade to paid versions of RealPlayer before you have to register yourself with Real Networks. If all this messing around doesn't appeal, check out a slimline app like UMPlayer.
When you're up and running, RealPlayer features a wide interface where you will notice ads and videos recommended by Real Networks. This looks cluttered and messy, and it's hard to know what the app actually offers. In reality, RealPlayer is ideal for playing and sharing video with your friends and followers on Facebook and Twitter and it works easily with BlackBerry, iPod, iPhone and other game systems. The new video converter allows you to copy online video to your iPod, Xbox, PS3 and other devices. Unfortunately, you can't rip DVDs with RealPlayer, although this is available as a feature if you upgrade to RealPlayer Plus.
Most recently, RealPlayer has been updated with far better mobile and social networking integration. You can now copy your favorite videos to an iPhone, iPad, Android, BlackBerry and dozens of other popular devices automatically. Downloading internet videos is faster, and for those of you with something to hide, RealPlayer offers a new Private folder. Social media has also been bumped up, with direct access to Facebook videos and usefully, a built-in feature to transfer videos to your mobile devices.
That said, RealPlayer isn't bad at all. It's comparable to Windows Media Player 12 as they both have some impressive ways of organizing your music. For me, the best feature is the CD burner which is something I've used from the early days of RealPlayer. The sheer quality of some of the media only available in Real formats makes RealPlayer an essential item in the toolkit of any fan of internet video and audio.
There's no shortage of media players theses days, and RealPlayer is by no means a bad option. It offers lots of features, good options and is a high-quality player that will do justice to your media. The only problem is that despite its modern features, it feels like a bit of a dinosaur. It's heavy and slow, looks chunky and takes an age to respond to clicks, and for many people - especially those who have experience of lighter options - it's just not the most comfortable player.
RealPlayer is a media player that, although powerful, has suffered from serious feature-creep over the years.

Malwarebytes Anti-Malware PRO fights viruses, spyware and other threats. Fast analysis, real-time protection and an online blacklist feature make it a security app to be taken seriously.
As you'd expect, Malwarebytes Anti-Malware PRO scans your system looking for viruses, spyware, malware, keyloggers and more. Of course, these scans can be automated or initiated on demand, if you'd like more control. The app will create whitelists, show you a scan log at the end of the process and will quarantine anything it thinks is suspicious, waiting for your assessment.
Malwarebytes Anti-Malware PRO, unlike the free version, offers real-time protection and can be considered a "real" antivirus, rather than a handy tool. It also protects you from suspicious sites when you are browsing the web, has extensive scheduling functions and the ability to prioritize tasks.
Although it's not breaking any records for appearance, Malwarebytes Anti-Malware PRO is clean, clear, and sensibly organized into a tab structure, meaning you'll find it very easy to move around.
Malwarebytes Anti-Malware PRO offers you 3 scanning options - fast, complete and flash. The latter just scans the memory and automated processes.
If you want to analyze a single file, just use the on-demand option that you'll find has appeared in the context (right-click) menu.
We found the scan engine to be quick, but we thought the detection rate could be improved. It doesn't detect rootkits, but instead offers a separate tool. For a pro version, we''d like everything to be included in the main app.
There are two ways to activate Malwarebytes Anti-Malware PRO's trial version:
1. If you've already installed the free version, open it and go to Security and then Start Test.
2. If this is the first time using Malwarebytes Anti-Malware, choose "Activate your free trial of Malwarebytes Anti-Malware PRO during the installation process.
Compared to the free version, Malwarebytes Anti-Malware PRO is a serious - and complete - anti-virus. The real-time protection and suspicious sites protection make it a valuable ally for people who spend lots of time online. It's also easy to use, which makes it a good choice for less-experienced users.
Even so, we felt the design and detection rate could be improved, things that caused Malwarebytes Anti-Malware PRO to lose a few points in our scoring.

Zulu DJ is a music app for PCs that lets you create your own playlists so you can try your hand at being a DJ.
Have you thought about DJ-ing but weren't sure where to start? Zulu DJ software is a functional, and simple music app that will get you started with minimal fuss.
Zulu DJ features two decks and a panel for your playlist. Users can drag and drop MP3s onto the interface and they'll be added to the playlist. Once they're in the playlist, you can drag tracks into Zulu DJ's decks. Tracks are analyzed as you load them, so when you play them you'll be told the beats per minute (bpm).
Controls on the Zulu DJ interface are pretty basic and self explanatory, meaning users shouldn't have a problem getting started. There are a couple of obvious features missing though, and the main one is that it's not possible to drag the wave display manually in order to find the exact spot you want to start a track. It's possible to select start points, but it's not very easy or accurate.
While it's too basic for professional DJs, Zulu's great for amateurs who just want to mess around. The Sync button will match your track's bpm, making smooth transitions really easy. You can also set up your own hot keys for most of the features of Zulu DJ Software. The virtual play buttons are a bit less responsive though.
Zulu DJ boasts simplicity and is a good starting point for any budding DJs out there.

K-Lite Codec Pack Basic is one of the most versatile media content packs available for users anywhere.
The K-Lite Codec Pack Basic comes in three separate versions for different tiered users. From the simple basic pack, which includes the most common video and audio codecs and includes subtitle support, the K-Lite Codec Pack Basic version will allow the majority of users to watch and listen to their content with relative ease.
One main difference of K-Lite Codec Pack Basic is that it does not include Media Player Classic Home Cinema . This simple media player is the easiest to use, but not necessary in K-Lite Codec Pack Basic. Windows Media Player is more than enough for the small amount of codecs in this set.
K-Lite Codec Pack Basic’s functionality is also directly connected to the hardware specifications of the system it is running on, so do not expect to be able to easily play high definition content with smooth framerates even though K-Lite Codec Pack Basic is able to render the files.
The most common codecs like DirectShow, MKV decoders, and MP4 decoders are installed in K-Lite Codec Pack Basic so there is not much more needed for every day viewing. Even though K-Lite Codec Pack Basic supports audio, it is meant for video. With the numerous video codecs and encoders creating files that are high quality with smaller file sizes, native Windows support does not exist for all the variations.
The different tested content in K-Lite Codec Pack Basic included MP4, AVI, WMV, and MKV; all at different levels of quality and resolutions. The codec pack had no problem playing any of the files in Windows Media Player. K-Lite Codec Pack Basic also supports different subtitle formats like SRT, SUB, and IDX, but take a little customizing for the subtitles to display properly.
K-Lite Codec Pack Basic is the perfect set of third-party codecs that are not natively supported in Windows.

Format Factory is a free, fully-featured, converter that enables you to convert audio, video, and even images, between the most popular formats.
Format Factory's supported formats include WMV, AVI, MPG, MP3, WMA, AAC, JPG, PNG, GIF, and many more. Better still, Format Factory supports media formats used by most major portable devices, including PSP and iPhone.
The app is very easy to use, although it does have a slightly unintuitive interface. Format Factory's file browser doesn't appear until you select the target format, which is a bit weird, but as long as you know this it's no problem. You can select individual files to convert, or complete folders, and also tweak some basic conversion settings.
Format Factory isn't particularly original but what makes it really useful is that it handles images as well as audio and video. Most converters like this only handle audio and video, so adding images to the mix gives it an edge, especially considering it's free. We also like the Audio Joiner in Format Factory, which allows you to take two separate clips, join them together and then convert them. It would've been nice to have preset profiles for mobile conversions, but you can't always have it all in a free app!

K-Lite Codec Pack Standard is the best all-in-one codec pack available.
There are many different video and audio files formats available. From numerous video formats to the different quality audio files, it takes a lot of time to search individually and install each codec that are being supported.
K-Lite Codec Pack Standard is the easiest and most comprehensive codec pack for users who watch or listen to audio on their personal computers. Including Media Player Classic Home Cinema and a wider array of specified codecs, K-Lite Codec Pack Standard never has a problem playing a video file or audio format. But the playback of certain file types, especially those that are created in high definition need suitable hardware for smooth playback.
Testing using WMV, AVI, MP4, and MKV; K-Lite Codec Pack Standard had no issues playing back the files. There is a small issue with WMV format with the video playing with small image tears. The other formats had no issues.
Media Player Classic Home Cinema is the core of K-Lite Codec Pack Standard and the combination of the multitude of codecs and the simplicity of Media Player Classic Home Cinema allowed for smoother playback than K-Lite Codec Pack Basic.
It is simple to see statistics about videos through Media Player Classic Home Cinema. Subtitle support also exists in K-Lite Codec Pack Standard and with the combination of Media Player Classic Home Cinema; it is even easier to activate the subtitles in video.
K-Lite Codec Pack Standard is the go-to all-in-one codec pack for video users. The interface and functionality is perfect for almost any media format and without being intrusive, there is not a bundle better.
K-Lite Codec Pack Standard will play anything you throw at it – 99% of the time.

K-Lite Codec Pack Full does what K-Lite Codec Pack Standard can, with more options.
Most user will never need to use K-Lite Codec Pack Full. It contains the same set of codecs that exist in K-Lite Codec Pack Standard, but also add the ability for users to encode their own videos.
K-Lite Codec Pack Full is best utilized by users who understand bitrates, frames per second, and resolution aspect ratios. Even though K-Lite Codec Pack Full is a great codec pack, it is not recommended for users who will not be creating and encoding their own videos.
The playback capability of K-Lite Codec Pack Full is like K-Lite Codec Pack Standard. The tests playing various file formats showed the same quality and function with the AVI, WMV, MKV, and MP4 videos. All played with no problems and K-Lite Codec Pack Full also contains subtitle support. K-Lite Codec Pack Full along with K-Lite Codec Pack Standard can re-time subtitles so if a user had issues with subtitle playback, it can be customized.
Using K-Lite Codec Pack Full as an encoder is the bulk of the purpose of the program. Since it layers more functions on top of K-Lite Codec Pack Standard, it is possible to view the exact specific audio and video codecs are being used, how they are utilized, and how they interact with the hardware they are running on. It is interesting information for the curious, but unnecessary for standard playback.
K-Lite Codec Pack Full is a great starting point for novice users who want to understand how media formats work and a good tool for working with different media types for customization.

Drag a video onto the interface to see a preview image, movie length, bit-rate and resolution. Then choose the output format (AVI, MP4, FLV, SWF, MPEG, RM, WMV, MOV, 3GP), or use the generic Android defaults.
Despite its name, in addition to converting video for Android, Freemore Video to Android Converter converts videos for other devices including BlackBerry, iPhone, iPod, iPad, AppleTV, PSP and more.
Freemore Video to Android Converter can also extract the audio track from a video in WAV, MP3, WMA, AAC and M4A formats.
The program allows you to convert videos in just three steps:
1) Drag the video to be converted to the program interface
2) Select presets and conversion profile
3) Click on Convert to start the conversion
Once conversion begins, you can track progress via a progress bar. In addition, you can set the program to shutdown your PC when the conversion is complete.
The video conversion speed is really quick. Smart decoding saves on resource usage and the program design is simple and straightforward.
Freemore Video to Android Converter is easy to use, fully functional and fast. The program includes an endless variety of presets (though you can't create your own) that simplifies video conversion.

liteCam is a handy app that allows you to record literally any video that is playing on your screen.
The tools included in liteCam give you the chance to grab streaming movies, news broadcasts, webcam footage, as well as capturing your screen actions and adding narrations to make video tutorials, all of it in a very easy way.
liteCam offers a significant number of tools to improve the quality of your screencasts once they've been created, and although the program only allows you to export to AVI, you can always run it through an external file converter to transform the video into any format you desire. I also liked the way you can program liteCam to record the screen at a given time, just like a VHS recorder. I'm no snoop, but I reckon this could be a great way of finding out if the kids have really been on the computer all night doing their homework.
Thanks to a dummy-proof interface, liteCam provides a very easy way in which to capture screen recordings and has enough options for you to be able to polish the resulting video to a decent quality.

If there's something I really hate, it's when a program has major good points counterbalanced by major bad points. It makes it really hard to write a proper review! Unfortunately, I'm in this situation with MusicTuner. This app finds and downloads audio tracks and allows you to listen to and save them to playlists and your hard drive. It also acts as a music player based on Windows Media Player.
In the past, MusicTuner was a free application, so it was easier to overlook some of its flaws. Since our last review, however, the application has become shareware, with a ridiculously short 12 hour trial period. All features seem to be fully functional, however, so you can search for and download tracks, play and organize music already on your computer, browse the internet for new music from within the program, edit your track information and back-up your playlists. There are a number of configuration settings, including hotkeys and a range of skins, but I found I could only change MusicTuner's skin once.
That's a pity, because the MusicTuner interface is horrible. It's non-standard, user unfriendly and the skin I was stuck with made it difficult to view text. I also found some of the program's menus buggy and, in all, using the program just wasn't very pleasant. That aside, MusicTuner makes it easy to search for music, and even features tutorials that you can use to get acquainted with the program. It searches quickly and presents results clearly, and from that point of view was quite good. Unfortunately, I really didn't enjoy using MusicTuner and can definitely say that I wouldn't download it myself.
MusicTuner has lots of potential, but some serious wrinkles to iron out.

On the downside, although the professional version of SuperAntiSpyware protects and blocks in real time, this free version does not provide real-time blocking or scheduled scanning. Also, note that this program doesn't protect against viruses.

Stinger is a minimalist antivirus application from McAfee designed to take care of specific threats that might be lurking on your computer.
Don't make the mistake of thinking that Stinger is a general antivirus. It's not - it's more of an extractor for a list of over 3,000 viruses specified by McAfee. The list is viewable from the program interface and, as with any other antivirus, you should try and keep Stinger as up to date as possible.
Stinger is very basic. Add the paths that you want to scan and hit the red Scan Now button. The program works quickly, summarizing results in the interface window. By default, Stinger will repair any viruses it finds, and you can export scan results under the File menu.
The Stinger configuration options are limited and quite advanced - you'll be able to specify what you want the program to do when it finds a virus, if you want to see a list of scanned files on the interface and an assortment of options relating to virus detection. Stinger is not a user-friendly program, but then again, it's not developed for your average user. If you are experienced, however, you'll find Stinger to be a helpful tool in your antivirus toolbox.
Stinger - low-key, focused virus detection.

With such an ever growing range of multimedia devices, no wonder format converters are becoming so popular these days!
Any Audio/Video Converter is one of those converters: a simple, easy-to-use application that support pretty much any format you can find nowadays and lets you convert both audio and video files in just a few steps.
The program works with a list where you add the files you want to convert, no matter what format they are. Then you configure the conversion options for each one of them separately and finally click on the "Convert" button to let the program do the rest. I think this method is quite handy and saves you loads of work and time; pity the trial version only accepts one file on this list!
Any Audio/Video Converter includes a built-in player in its interface, but it's only good to watch the video while it's being converted and not preview it before actually starting the process.
With Any Audio/Video Converter you can convert basically any audio and video file you can think of, in a quite easy process that involves very little effort.
