The old adage tells us that if something is just too good to be true then it probably is. So it was with the free file sharing system Ares Destiny that I tried out recently. I’d heard mixed reviews and just wanted to give it a test run. It’s free so I thought that it wouldn’t hurt to try. How wrong I was: it hurt a lot. First off the Ares Destinysoftware is nothing special. There is nothing particularly wrong with it either: it is just mid range stuff that is easily bettered by searching around. This didn’t surprise me a great deal since Ares Destiny is relatively new to the market and I didn’t expect them to get it spot on first time around. The big surprise – and it is not one of those nice surprises like you would expect on a birthday or at Christmas – is that during installation (which was, unsurprisingly in hindsight, pretty much an automatic affair) it had managed to squeeze Dealio onto my computer. Dealio is spyware, pure and simple, and unless you really like popups every few minutes it will get annoying very, very soon. As a parting shot, it turns out that Dealio is pretty much impossible to get rid of. Steer well clear of Ares Destiny!
