Jessica :

I downloaded Graboid but every time i try to open it up from my desktop, i get an error message about unistalling VLC media player which i didnt do. I have waited two days for an email responce from the support people but i have gotten nothing can someone else help

Well, it didn’t show me any problems while installing and starting up but can you try uninstalling both, delete your %appdata% contents and then reboot your machine. Once that is done, installing VLC Media Player first and then install Graboid. I hope it will solve your problem. Let me know if it solves your problem!

what kind of problem you are talking about? is it related to some bug or some performance problems or something?

I think the problems kshutch is referring to is that like all software, Graboid can have some problems occasionally, nothing serious, just little things with the software that need to be ironed out, although with the newest version 1.65 I have noticed that the Graboid forums are a lot quieter. Also, some new users sometimes don’t know exactly how to use Graboid and so may run into a little trouble, all these problems can usually be resolved by visiting the forums. I know kshutch from the Graboid forums as I myself have been a user of Graboid for seven months and I can tell you he has helped countless people out and really loves Graboid as I do. I hope this answers your question. You won’t find better than Graboid.

I use it almost every day. The content is incredible. I run into very few “bad links” because graboid doesn’t actually host anything. They are giving me a link to a file that has been posted on the Usenet groups and most of them by far work fine. I can then download the file and do whatever I want with it.

I download entire seasons of television shows and they are all good quality videos. I am now downloading Star Trek: Deep Space Nine. All 7 seasons! Look it up. It costs hundreds of dollars to purchase this show. I am going to download it and burn it for about 10 bucks. And most of that cost is the blank DVD’s.

Sure, the program has quirks, but for my money I am getting what I paid for and then some.

The newest version 1.65 is better than ever and the forums are beginning to quiet down for troubleshooting.

And remember anyone can try it for free. Anyone who says different is either lying or hasn’t really tried it themselves.
