ClockSync
Overview
From the developer:
The ClockSync! software bundle from WhenU.com includes both Save! and ClockSync.
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 ClockSync 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.

ClockSync is bundled with "Free CD to WAV and MP3 Ripper" and "Free MP3 to WAV Decoder".
