I dont get why everybody is being negative about the site since i never had any problems with it and if you get messages for rogue software just use an adblocker.

Many sites are just bogus when you try to find help for your unknown extension files. This site does exactly what I want.
I can have clear and precise information at no cost whatsoever.
Watch out for other sites that want you to download "help programs" or pay for information.

The site does provide info for file extentions as it should but it promotes rouge softawre from uniblue. Use caution while visiting this site.

Good site for someone who looking information about file extention

gives you good file extension information

The affiliate relationships and/or advertising is deceptive, leading to the Uniblue scamware and what is likely a crapware toolbar without informing the reader of any ifinancial arrangements. Other sites can be used without the integrity problem.

Information about some file extensions but mostly offers software to "fix errors." Way too many ads for registry cleaners, mostly for those from UniBlue.

Promotes rogue applications:
DriveScanner 2009
RegistryBooster 2009
SpeedupMyPC 2009

Direct links to known rogue scanner software applications via affiliate advertising.

Annoying ads on the webpage if you search for an extension
5
Ad for registry cleaner which was blocked by me with adblock plus

agree with webnoid, no useful information and ad for 'registry cleaning software'

This site does not tell you what the extension is, rather it tries to sell you software to "fix" the bad extensions on your computer.
