Just curious about a very important issue: has Aimersoft eliminated the ashelper.exe that tends to install with their applications, that embeds itself in Startup, and is a bear to get rid of? Had to fight it off from the last few Aimersoft giveaways here.
I hope so, their programs (from previous giveawayoftheday) tend to be decent, but the ashelper.exe is a deal killer, and makes me leery of installing any more of their software.

Looks like the same version given away here a few months ago....so the annoying issue mentioned by #1 should still apply!

I've just tried it using Toolwize Timefreeze and it works fine....yes, it's a decent Music recorder but the above issue makes me leery of installing it as well!!

OK, NO PROBLEM!!

How about a FREE & PORTABLE FREE music downloader app, which can flawlessly search, find and download over 100 million MP3 songs from the NET with unmatchable speed and best output quality, by song title, artist name, album or edition?
Can download multiple songs at the same time, since it supports multi-thread downloading, and it's also compatible with any mp3 players out there, including iPad, iPhone, cell phone, PSP, iPod, etc....

Aimersoft, Wondershare, iskysoft - they will always install that "helper" file, which is arguably Adware according to previous posts (do a google search).

I had the same question about ashelper.exe (or wshelper.exe for Wondershare branded apps) for a recent Aimersoft giveaway - I never got any answers so I decided to proceed installing the app, only to find that ashelper.exe always gets installed (It may not be the case this time around, but I'd be surprised if it no longer comes with ashelper.exe, therefore, I just don't bother with Wondershare and its affiliated brands anymore)

Version 1.0.0.. it seems this is the very first version of this music recorder, it might have bugs so I will give it a pass.

If you want to download music,streaming audio/video from youtube etc,
get a decent download manager like eagleget or flashget :

http://www.eagleget.com/ FREE portable
www.flashget.com FREE

For editing audio, I am sure everyone has heard about the AUDACITY

By using Audacity, you can not only record streaming audio but edit it as well.

NCH software Soundtap allows you to record any sound played on your computer

@9 (Giovanni) Don't bother downloading GiliSoft Audio Recorder Free unless you want it to download snap.do toolbar as well. It pretends to give you the option of skipping the toolbar but you can't! I cancel it.
