WeatherCast Bundle
Overview
WeatherCast Bundle displays the current weather conditions. WeatherCast Bundle is
ad supported and shows SaveNow pop up advertisements.
BearShare is currently bundling WeatherCast.
From the vendor: "The WeatherCast! software bundle from WhenU.com includes both Save! and WeatherCast.
WeatherCast brings your current local weather conditions and 5-day forecast to your desktop
at all times. By entering your zip code or local city, you gain access to important weather
information for your area. You can also check the weather at any location around the world.
WeatherCast will display your local temperature in degrees in your computer's system tray, and
when clicked on will give you a detailed weather update and forecast. If your Internet connection
is active, your WeatherCast system tray icon temperature will be updated every half hour.
Save! shows you relevant coupon offers, contextual information and services as you surf the Web.
Save! attempts to display offers at the moment when they are most relevant to you. Offers and
information are displayed in the form of interstitials ("pop-up ads") and various other ad formats.
The Save! software selects which ads and offers to display to individual users based on several
factors, including: URLs associated with web pages visited by the user, search terms typed by the
user into search engines, HTML content of the web pages viewed by the user and the local zip code
of the user . Save! ads and offers are delivered in a separate, independent window controlled by
WhenU.com, are not endorsed or affiliated with anyone other than WhenU.com and may in fact be
competitive with some of the sites visited by the user while online.
Save! software enables users to receive advertising-supported versions of many popular software
applications for free. Use of Save! is required to continue using WeatherCast for free. As a result,
Save! cannot be uninstalled from your computer's Control Panel independently. In order to completely
remove Save! from your computer, you must uninstall all of the Save!-supported software from your
computer. Once you do so, your Save! software will automatically be uninstalled as well."
