Stay away from Assshampoo... they will spam you to death for their free software. Use OpenOffice instead.

Ashampoo produce good quality software - big deal you get an email now and again from them.

I've been using their Office equivalent and Burning Studio for a while and sometimes in the "spam" you will get links to free downloads of their full versions.

For the most part I like Ashampoo products. Sure you get the odd email but when you unsubscribe the emails stop. I don't get their emails and use
1) Ashampoo Burning Studio 8
2) Ashampoo Movie Shrink and Burn 3
3) Ashampoo Clip Fisher
4) Ashampoo Photo Optimizer 2
5) Ashampoo WinOptimizer 5

I don't need this product but thanks for the post OP.
