I was thinking of downloading the software but upon some research I came upon this thread:

Also, the Cnet's download page has some comments stating that the software has malware.

Has anyone used a similar software? I am looking for alternatives. How do you guys create gifs for say Tutorials etc?

Thanks in advance for your time.
