Cybertron Software Releases its New Product Privacy Eraser Free

Sandy Springs, Georgia (PRWEB) January 28, 2014

Cybertron Software (http://www.cybertronsoft.com) recently released its new product, Privacy Eraser Free 1.0, an all-in-one privacy suite that deletes internet search history and browsing history. This new product allows users to clean their tracks and protect their privacy. http://www.cybertronsoft.com/products/privacy-eraser/

Did you know? 1.That all the sites you visit and images you see are stored in your computer? 2.That every picture that you have ever viewed, sent or received over the internet is stored on your hard drive? 3.That there is a record and most likely a copy of every program you have ever downloaded or used on your hard drive? 4.That deleting cache and history will not protect you? Windows saves additional browsing history within the index.dat files on your computer. 5.That the windows "delete" button and the "empty recycle bin" option does NOT DELETE your files? Any software recovery tool can easily recover those files.

Privacy Eraser Free protects your privacy by cleaning up every track of internet and computer activities. The Internet Eraser supports popular web browsers such as Internet Explorer, Mozilla Firefox, Google Chrome, Safari and Opera.

Privacy Eraser Free supports free plug-ins to extend cleaning features, so that users can easily erase the tracks left by any applications and create their own plug-ins. Cybertron currently offers more than 200 FREE plug-ins, which support the most popular programs including ACDSee, Adobe Reader, Microsoft Office, WinZip, WinRAR, Windows Media Player, VLC Player, eMule, BitTorrent, Google Toolbar and many others.

Privacy Eraser Free supports Microsoft Windows FAT16/FAT32/exFAT/NTFS file systems, and completely implements and exceeds the US Department of Defense and NSA clearing and sanitizing standard. This program is designed to completely eliminate file data so that it cannot ever be recovered.

5 painful lessons startups are learning from the slow death of free cloud services

2 hours ago Jan. 28, 2014 - 11:16 AM PST

Yowza: When LogMeIn announced that it was ending the free version of its remote access software after ten years, it probably expected blowback but Im not sure it anticipated the vitriol spewed in comments on that move both on our story and on Twitter.

First, let me say this: the LogMeIn people are very nice.As are, Im sure, the folks atSugarSync,which pulled its free storage and file sync product in December;Droplr, which followed suitin January.

The user reactions expressed ranged from white-hot outrage to peeved annoyance to resignation. Many of the enraged or irritated users felt that a: they werent given enough notice and/or b: theyd be happy to pay but that the new price plan was too damn high for what they needed. Many of that cohort said they were hitting the highway for some still-free alternative. It is, of course, impossible to tell if they ended up doing so or sucked it up and got out their credit cards.

Synthesizing the comments, here are a few things vendors thinking about taking an ax to their free services should consider before wielding it.

First off, if you plan to introduce a free product, its best not to label it as forever free even if that is your intention. Nothing lasts forever and you can bet that a super-irked and vocal set of your users will hold you to those words and hurl them back at you in a very public forum. If youve already used the Forever Free mantra for the freebie youre about to nuke, gird yourself. But for most vendors, its too late for this discussion.

You may not think of users of your free product as customers customers pay for something, right? but many of those users would disagree. Vociferously. So go easy. Dont poke the bear.

Its gonna be a tough sell (cough) to end a free product, but if you do it, give people time to figure their plan of action. A week is too short a period. A month or two, much better.

An unscientific poll of friends and family turned up several who willingly upgraded for a paid version of a freebie. One colleague pays for Google Drive to get more space you get up to 15GB free. Another went from free to paid Spotify to lose the ads and to be able to download songs for offline listening. For this self-described poor 20-something, going from zero to $9.99 a month was not something she did lightly, but shes glad she did. Another used AwardWallet to track frequent flier and hotel miles accumulated for the free six-month intro and was so pleased that he signed on the bottom line to continue on the paid service.
