Hey, I work at Iconix. The software isn’t Beta, its GA.
TechnoDaddy,
Thank you for commenting. I have corrected the above issue.
Hey are these Iconix clowns for REAL? There is very little suggesting their legitimacy, and, like the fool that I am, in installed their program. Norton didn’t set off bells and whistles, which is good. However, even their own messages didn’t have their Iconix mark on them when emailed to me. I still wonder if it too is a hoax and will remain skeptical untl I hear evidence of its legitimacy.
Would be nice if it were real though… I’m not counting on it.
