Dear Technical Support,
18 months ago, I upgraded to Girlfriend 1.0 from Drinking Mates 4.2,
which I had used for years without any trouble. However, there are
apparently conflicts between these two products and the only solution
was to try and run Girlfriend 1.0 with the sound turned off.
To make matters worse, Girlfriend 1.0 is incompatible with several other
applications, such as Lads Night Out 3.1, Football 4.5, and Playboy 6.9.
Successive versions of Girlfriend proved no better.
A shareware program, Party Girl 2.1, which I tried, had many bugs and
left a virus in my system, forcing me to shut down completely for
several weeks.
Eventually, I tried to run Girlfriend 1.2 and Girlfriend 1.0 at the same
time, only to discover that when these two systems detected each other
they caused severe damage to my hardware.
I then upgraded to Fiancée 1.0, only to discover that this product soon
had to be upgraded further to Wife 1.0.
While Wife 1.0 tends to use up all my available resources, it does come
bundled with FreeS * x Plus and Cleanhouse 2002.
Shortly after this upgrade, however, I found that Wife 1.0 could be very
unstable and costly to run.
Any mistakes I made were automatically stored in Wife 1.0's memory and
could not be deleted.
They then resurfaced months later when I had forgotten about them. Wife
1.0 also has an automatic Diary, Explorer and E-mail Filter, and can,
without warning, Launch TurboStrop and Whinge.
These latter products have no Help files, and I have to try to guess
what the problem is.
Additional problems are that Wife 1.0 needs updating regularly,
requiring ShoeShop Browser for new attachments and Hairstyle Express
which needs to be reinstalled every other week. Wife 1.0 also spawns
unwelcome child processes that drain my resources. These conflict with
some of the new games I wanted to try out, warning me that they are an
illegal operation.
Also, when Wife 1.0 attaches itself to my Audi TT hard drive, it often
crashes. Wife 1.0 also comes with a rather annoying pop-up called
Mother-In-Law, which can't be turned off.
Recently I've been tempted to install Mistress 2003, but there could be
problems.
A friend of mine has alerted me to the fact that if Wife 1.0 detects
Mistress 2003, it tends to delete all of your Money files before
uninstalling itself.
