Free Software Downloads

Hello, long time user of Cnet to get free software since 1998. Recently I have tried to use several different PC softwares for computer improvements. Let me tell you NONE of them are free.... every time they turn out to be "pay" to fix. Then when you try to uninstall them, you can't. I even tried calling their support and contact info. They literally don't exist. what happened to Cnet. You have totally tanked. Your web page can longer be trusted as "safe". Sad, I use to get good stuff here. Good-bye Good- Luck . Sorry to see your fall and failure. Over and Out.......
