User Reviews

  • The file downloaded, I installed, the app appears to be non-functional. Windows asks me if I'd like to browse my files to find the program when I attempt to use the desktop shortcut to launch it. The app doesn't appear in my list of installed apps so I can't even 'remove' whatever it managed to install on the computer. Highly suspicious, now I get to reformat my computer as a precaution.

    You probably have a much newer OS and Java version than this program was developed for 13 years ago. I am currently checking if I get this to work again.
  • I might not be the most independent one to post a review as I am the developer of this software but I can say that we use it in our office on a regular basis and it very well suits our needs, i.d playing fun sounds ;-)
