Installed and registered without problems on a Win 8.1.3 Pro 64 bit system. This time a really "clear install".

A company without name and address, no digital signature:
"A4DeskPro is a popular flash website maker first released in 2004. Simply search for A4Desk or A4DeskPro and you will find our products listed on thousands of websites, software reviews by many reputable websites including ZDNET, Download.com, TUCOWS and several computer magazines."

A look into the programs directory shows, that the big part of this software package is some years old, nothing bad about this, but it shows a principal problem of this software:

It is a "flash" website creator, with all known advantages and disadvantages - and no future.

The good side:
Upon start a resizable window opens, you have 50 ready made presets for a website, bashed on SWF. Some examples show, how this works:

The examples are nicely made.
I selected a new template, the change of the existing text, photos and background is easily made, understandable also for a (not totally) newbie.

A first impression is positive, a quick way to produce a fast web page based on flash. If you are interested in a simple web page creator, this could be the right software. Basic HTML skills are needed to change the text appearance, no skills needed, if you only replace the preset text with your own text. Does what it claims.

Uninstalled via reboot, don't need this one.

Mobile devices are hastening the move to responsive web design making all of these old school website builders less relevant with each passing day. That said, this is OK for it's category, there are better and worse alternatives, but investing any serious time learning this method of website building in 2015 probably not the best use of one's time anymore. I would instead suggest looking into openElement; Pingendo; Mobirise or another of the many user friendly tools available, just Google: Free Responsive Web Editors.

Downloaded and Installed easily. I thought I'd be able to create a site from scratch, but you can only use the templates created by other people. I have to compare this to the online website builder like Weebly & GoDaddy. I find A4DP(A4 Desk Pro)more difficult to use. Why this is called pro, I don't know, because any of the extra features, after the basic version, you have to pay for.
ATM i'm not inpressed.
Uninstalled the same way Karl does, via reboot.

These appear to be framed or tabled templates which are not mobile friendly due to resizing limitation. Am I correct in my assumption?

Armed with a free copy of Wordpress and very cheap hosting (approx 18 GBP) you can have a responsive website up and running in hours. You don't need to be a design whizz - there are so many free templates out there already, and many templates allow limitless customisations. If you need a website, it has to look as professional as possible and unfortunately, this software would make your website look pants.

I´m not saying that todays giveaway is a good software but introducing Wordpress as an alternative is to much for me. This software is created for newbies, newbies should stay far away of Wordpress however. Wordpress is very different in that it is a CMS with all its advantages and disadvantages. When you create a CMS you must accept a higher risc that it is hacked or otherwise injected: you have to have knowledge of how to protect your sql database on your host (f.i. protecting sql queries against injection attacks: no work for newbies). I am also not convinced that a Wordpress template looks better than the example Karl gave (in the hands of a newbie). I´ve seen lots of Wordpress sites that look very very unprofessional. I hate Flash as well and there are security riscs there to, but I don´t see an big overtake by html5 (in online games etcetera) happening on a short term.
