Recipe Software?

I am interested in recipe software reviews. Any of you use them to store your recipes on computer? Which have you tried and which did you like or didn't like? I purchases Cookbook Wizard and was actually very pleased with it. But had to redo my computer and the file did not copy and I lost my recipes. But the big problem is right now is that I misplaced the program disk and now the program I tried to transfer has viewed my program as a trial program. I have contacted the company and hope they can solve my problem, but for now there is no way I can put in my software key. So I am considering a different program to buy without reinstallation issues! Just looking a bit down the road right now. I have an interest in The Big Oven and wondered if anyone had problems reinstalling this program?
 
The BigOven - I have had for years - never one problem with it. I've spent tons on all sorts of software throughout the years - this is the one I wish I would have had since the beginning.

I purchased a new computer - with a different operating system - all I had to do was load the info off the other one onto a 4g gizmo - and plug it in to my new system - a couple clicks and I was back in business - no headaches - no problems.

It's my opinion of course - but after all I spent on other programs - this one is the best.
 
I've used MasterCook Deluxe for years and been very pleased with it and if you are a FireFox browser user, there is an addon called 'RecipeFox' that will grab recipes from many websites and import them into MasterCook effortlessly.

I have customized the recipe printout for half a page, which I 3-hole punch to fit my small 7x9 in. binders, giving me my personal custom recipe books.
 
Thank you for your answers! It sounds like where I will go. I hate software problems like this. And I do use Fire Fox from time to time and that sound really well. I will be waiting for a response from that other program to see if they can get me up. But I think I will be ordering something new for myself!:)
