Bearshare Complaint - Bearshare - Online Download

Online Download - Complaint
Review by matt.racalla1 on 2011-08-11
After searching for an online music resource I downloaded Bearshare. I downloaded this "Free" program only to find that my computer took a beating. I un-installed the program and still found traces of Bearshare in many different locations on those computers. This program also made different web browsers a bearshare homepage of which I could not get rid of. I would recommend that anyone with the same issues read their license agreement. Please contact me if you are interested in joining my lawsuit with bareshare as they have violated many aspects of their own agreement with their consumers-not to mention destroyed two of my own computers. Once downloaded this program is nearly impossible to expel from your computer. Hopefully I have stopped you from even thinking about a bearshare download. FYI: I have had bearshare "stupidly" on two computers. I'm writing this on my third (with out bearshare) and this computer works great.

I used to like Bearshare back in the day, but now I just use torrent.

Most built in uninstallers do not fully uninstall programs, leaving traces buried in the hard drive and the registry. You may want to go to a free file site such as CNET and search for "uninstallers". There are several free programs out there that do a deep uninstall of unwanted programs.

CCleaner is pretty good at cleaning up your computer of unwanted junk.
