Our Review: As far as free word processors go, TextShield does an adequate job. It fulfills all the basic needs and does feature a couple of novelties such as the interactive links and a little audio player. Unfortunately,TextShield is rather lacking in features and presentation, especially when compared to something such as 602 Pro Suite, which is a hugely powerful and superbly presented free word processor. Still, if you are after something small and simple, TextShield will do the job.
