This crap software from ZeoBit is a way to get Microsoft's wretchedness onto your Mac. Its surreptitious use of the "wine" process (WINdows Emulator) took over my Mac's OS and forced me to wipe the drive in order to remove it. It took up to 95% of my CPU, making it so my directory folders wouldn't reveal file contents for 1-2 minutes, and so applications would take minutes to start, if ever.
There is no upfront and honest description that the application is just Windows pretending to know what's best for Mac users. They never have. They never will. This is garbage. Everything that it does is available in a terminal window. Unfortunately, these scammers are big advertisers who take the adage of "there';s a sucker born ever minute" to a new height: ""there can be a new sucker born every minute if we impregnate enough people with our 'Big Lie'". Sadly, even Apple is silent....
It's time for Apple to start better-certifying the legitimacy of software that claims to be written for Apple. Bad porting and emulators should never be certified!
