I finally decided to Google up “Finally Fast”, and you know what? As I suspected, the tools seem to report an exaggerated error count, and you end up purchasing duplicate copies of software… And the software isn’t necessary, there are free replacements that are significantly more reliable, and recommended in the community.
I decided to actually call up Finally Fast, three separate times, talking to three different people, asking them a bunch of questions about their program and what it can do, and recorded all three.
What you will hear is astonishing.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HWF_U6fmmMs – Call #1: I speak to a guy named Matt who works in Sales and doesn’t know the advertisements they do.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NapxF5SNiM0 – Call #2: Tom tells me how the internet can be increased by 375%. So this means I could download at 20kb a second on dial-up. Sounds awesome, right?
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QQBsi-UT7zA – Call #3: My final call and I talk to Katie. She tells me how kilobytes are injected into my internet connection from a CD-rom you download to make it go faster. Oh, and Spybot S&D, Spysweeper, and ZoneAlarm are viruses.
I still see this program advertised on TV and I am just waiting for Ascentive to get nailed by the FTC too.” See source.
