When you install the new version, you will find out its not free. When you uninstall it and try to reinstall the old FREE version, it cant be done without errors because the developer has invaded your registry by embedding code which prevents old version from being installed. To make things worse, the developer has also taken it upon themselves to further hijack your web browser to lead you to their web page to buy this product. This flagrant and irresponsible act is deceptive and it infringes on people's personal property by removing FREE software's ability to function in favor of software for money. Also, it invades someone's computer like a virus and decides which page you will go to when you open your browser. These acts are unacceptable and no one should download or buy from this deceitful developer if they want to avoid having their registry messed with.

The app caches "channels" in the memory so when it comes to updating the displays it happens smoothly. Having disk thrashing and your computer slow down to a crawl because DT wants to update your webcam views and photo albums is a lot worse than saving memory. Desktop Takeover is a multithreaded software designed to be as unobtrusive as possible. Besides, that's what memory in the computer is for. To be used. It's not like your wireless minutes where you have to be careful how you use them because eventually you run out. ;) 30MB is not bad considering all the things the software does.
